आज तड़के सुबह प्राप्त यह sms केंद्र सरकार की सुप्रीम कोर्ट को दी गई सूचना को झुठलाता है।10 अक्तूबर 2013 को 'द हिन्दू' में प्रकाशित समाचार के अनुसार पेट्रोलियम एवं प्रकृतिक गैस मंत्री वीरप्पा  मोइली ने पत्रकारों के समक्ष स्पष्ट किया था कि,:
“Aadhaar is only an identification card. We will not make it mandatory unless the Supreme Court gives clearance,” Mr. Moily told reporters here. 

वास्तविक स्थिति यह है :

The Ministry had unveiled the scheme in 97 districts and planned to extend it to almost 265 districts by January 1, under which all consumers in these districts had to get their bank accounts linked with their Aadhaar number to avail themselves of the subsidy. The Aadhaar platform, which provides a resident a 12-digit unique number after recording bio-metric information like fingerprints and iris, is being used to implement the cash transfer scheme.

But the Supreme Court ruled that Aadhaar could not be made mandatory for people to get government services and nobody should be deprived of any such facilities for want of the card. It also rejected the review petition filed by the government on this issue.

टाटा डोकोमो की मार्फत 'भारत पेट्रोलियम कार्पोरेशन लिमिटेड मोबाईल सर्विसेज' द्वारा आज 29 अक्तूबर 2013 की तड़के सुबह 5 बज कर 8 मिनट 39 सेकेंड पर  भेजा गया sms  तो मंत्री जी की घोषणा और सर्वोच्च न्यायालय की व्यवस्था का खुला उल्लंघन एवं राष्ट्र की सार्व भौमिकता को बेचे जाने की पुष्टि करता है। 

इसी ब्लाग में 18 अक्तूबर एवं 21 अक्तूबर को निम्नलिखित विषयों पर  जनता को आगाह किया गया था  जिसकी सूचना सांसद कामरेड गुरुदास दासगुप्ता जी की फेसबुक वाल पर भी अन्य बड़े कामरेड्स के साथ-साथ दी गई थी। किन्तु अफसोस कि हमारे कामरेड्स नेतृत्व को भी मनमोहन सरकार के संकटमोचक मुलायम सिंह जी को उनके विकल्प मे पी एम बनवाने की तो पड़ी है किन्तु देश की सुरक्षा और सार्व भौमिकता के लिए खतरा बन चुके 'आधार कार्ड' योजना को सर्वोच्च न्यायालय की आपत्ति के बावजूद  रद्द करवाने की कोई तत्परता नहीं है।

The Aadhaar scheme is unconstitutional---Justice K.S. Puttaswamy

The Aadhaar scheme is unconstitutional as applicants are required to part with personal information on biometrics, iris and fingerprints, infringing their right to privacy, which is held part of the fundamental right to life under Article 21 of the Constitution, Justice K.S. Puttaswamy, retired judge of the Karnataka High Court, and other petitioners told the Supreme Court.
“There are no safeguards or penalties and no legislative backing for obtaining personal information, and the proposed law introduced by the government has been rejected by the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Finance. Provisions for collection and retention of biometric data have been held impermissible in the United Kingdom and France by their top courts.”

Attack on India's sovereignty and democracy---S.G.Vombatkere

Spying-snooping-scrutiny

Edward Snowden’s expose caused international outrage for NSA infringing on individual privacy, and on friends and foes alike at governmental and public levels. USA’s NATO allies were vocal in their feigned outrage at the revelation that their cyberspace had been secretly invaded by NSA, even their embassies bugged, and data mining performed on their official and private citizens’ communications. True to this writer’s prediction that “there is unlikely to be even a squeak on this sovereignty issue” [Ref.3], India, far from even feigning outrage, has sought to play down USA’s presidentially-sanctioned spying, snooping and surveillance by terming it as “scrutiny” of India’s cyberspace. However, even “scrutiny”, the mildest of the terms [Note 2], is objectionable because it impinges on India’s sovereignty.................................................................................................................................................................................     

..................................................................................................

Surveillance and security

Surveillance by USA on India’s leaders and private citizens is bad enough, but India is preparing for its own internal surveillance. Surveillance assumes that the subject surveilled is a suspected spy or a criminal [Note 2]. This assumption for general public surveillance in a democracy is unwarranted because the general public becomes “suspect”. Surveillance of criminal suspects (targetted surveillance) is standard police and intelligence practice and, in a democratic society, is done with appropriate established, well-defined checks and safeguards, so that the power of surveillance is not misused to gain advantage or blackmail or settle scores for political or partisan purposes. Even with checks and balances in place, targetted surveillance has led to innumerable cases of staged or false “encounters” resulting in extra-judicial killings based on questionable intelligence reports, mere suspicion or motivated political orders.

Adhar cards not compulsory, don’t give them to illegal immigrants: SC ---(Dinesh Reghunath R)

New Delhi: In a significant development, the Supreme Court on Monday ruled that Aadhar cards are not mandatory even as various state governments insist on making it compulsory for a range of formalities, including marriage registration, disbursal of salaries and provident fund among other public services.

A bench of Justices BS Chauhan and SA Bobde said, "The Centre and state governments must not insist on Aadhar cards from citizens before providing them essential services."

The apex court also directed the central and the state governments not to issue the Aadhar cards to illegal immigrants.

The apex court, while trashing the Centre's claim of Rs 50,000 crore expenses on the UIDAI project, said that Aadhar card is not necessary for important services.


The apex court passed the order in response to a PIL pleading it to examine the "voluntary" nature of the Aadhaar cards. The PIL was filed by Justice KS Puttaswamy, a retired judge of the Karnataka High Court recently.

In the PIL the petitioner had also sought an immediate stay on the implementation of the scheme.

"The scheme is complete infraction of Fundamental Rights under Articles 14 (right to equality) and 21 (right to life and liberty). The government claims that the scheme is voluntary but it is not so. Aadhaar is being made mandatory for purposes like registration of marriages and others. Maharashtra government has recently said no marriage will be registered if parties don't have Aadhaar cards," the petitioner said.

The petitioner asserted that the issue required a meticulous judicial examination by the Bench since it raised questions not only over the government's authority to implement the scheme, but also highlighted the perils of the manner of its implementation.

The Bench accepted his arguments and agreed to hear his contentions on the interim stay as well on Sep 23 while asking the centre and state governments to file their replies.

In its reply, the Centre had earlier claimed that for an Aadhaar card, consent of an individual was indispensable and hence it was a voluntary project, with an objective to promote inclusion and benefits of the marginalised sections of the society that has no formal identity proof.
