Master Stroke(26.09.2018): SC's observations in Aadhaar case

The Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld the legality of Aadhaar restricting it to disbursement of social benefits and junking its requirement for cell phones and bank accounts.

Here are the main observations of the apex court in its 1,448-page judgement:

* It is better to be unique than the best. Because, being the best makes you the number one, but being unique makes you the only one. 'Unique makes you the only one' is the central message of Aadhaar.

* Education took us from thumb impression to signature, technology has taken us from signature to thumb impression, again.
