During suo motu proceedings on social security for persons with disabilities, the Supreme Court examined the plight of Odisha resident Radhika Bhuye and her visually impaired son. The CJI said the Court’s concern was whether “a life with dignity can be ensured” for her.
The Supreme Court has issued notice on a PIL seeking directions that Aadhaar be used only as proof of identity and not for establishing citizenship, residence, or age. The Court observed that the issue overlaps with a similar matter already pending before it.
