"Intensifying the attack, AICC spokesperson Shobha Oza said, "The Unique Identity architecture was purely designed to create a right to obtain a unique identity, enrolment process for demographic and biometric information so that welfare schemes could be more inclusive and there were no leakages. But the Modi government's sheer high-handedness and brazen attitude towards Aadhaar, coupled with an underlying motive to use the data for citizen surveillance, is defeating that very purpose. "Oza said the government had fought in the SC against the right to privacy of citizens and the perils of making Aadhaar mandatory for every scheme were evident.
