The
deadline to link Aadhaar with various government schemes and bank accounts will
be pushed back to March 31, government
told the Supreme Court today. The extension will be applied only to those who
do not have the Unique Identification Number.
The government will also issue notification for the extension, Attorney General KK Venugopal, who is representative of Centre, told the court. But the last date for Aadhaar linking to cellphone numbers that is February 6, cannot be extended, since the date has been decided by the supreme court, it was told by the centre.
The petitioners, those appealed against making of Aadhaar mandatory, have also objected to the conditional extension of last line. The interim order will be expected next week, when the court will be hearing the case again.Raebareli news in Hindi

Social activists also have asked the Supreme Court to stop
the Centre from making of Aadhaar mandatory for mobile phone numbers and bank
accounts, contending that it violates people's right to privacy and can be
misused. Their petition also challenges the validity of Aadhaar, which contains
biometric details like finger prints and iris scans.
This matter will be heard by a five-judge bench of the top court, which will be led by Chief Justice Dipak Mishra.Currently, the 12-digit number has to be added to bank accounts, PAN cards, government services and cellphone services.
