Decoding Aadhaar Verdict
The Supreme Court of India has finally announced the judgement on Aadhaar this week. Spanning 1448 pages there are three judgements with four judges upholding Aadhaar constitutionally and one judge justice Chandrachud dissenting for shutting down Aadhaar. While the majority judges upheld Aadhaar, it has clipped its wings by not allowing private players to access Aadhaar and only allowing Aadhaar for government schemes. Even after the judgement there is a lot of confusion among citizens about Aadhaar. This session will explain you the nuances of the judgement and the future of Aadhaar.
Speakers:
Srinivas Kodali is a interdisciplinary researcher working on cities, data and the internet. He has been looking into the security of the Aadhaar project since 2017 and has authored a report on security practices of Aadhaar highlighting how 13 crores Aadhaar numbers were public on the internet.
Arjun is a Lawyer by profession. He is interested in the interaction of law and technology and dreams of a digital future where technologies such as automation and AI will result in a world free from oppression. Technology is to be an enabler of individual liberties and individual growth. No he does not have an Aadhaar number. His existence has become a issue now after the Aadhaar judgment.
