SC seeks ECI, Centre responses on plea against Aadhaar use beyond identity proof

The Supreme Court is examining a plea to ensure Aadhaar is used solely for identity verification. The petition argues its use for citizenship, domicile, address, or date of birth violates the Aadhaar Act. This comes amid concerns that Aadhaar's broader acceptance could allow illegal immigrants to obtain voter IDs, impacting election integrity and welfare schemes.
