The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has informed the Delhi High Court that core biometric information collected by the authority under the Aadhaar Act shall not be shared with anyone for any reason whatsoever.
Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) on Wednesday said that the veracity or genuineness of ‘Aadhaar’ can be "easily established" both in an online and offline mode, and outlined multiple ways to do so. UIDAI noted that the issue of how to verify the genuineness of an Aadhaar card is often faced by organisations when the biometric ID is presented to them as a proof
UIDAI was unable to provide assurances on the security of "REs and ASAs accessing and storing" Aadhaar users' personal information via unregistered biometric equipment (used prior to April 2018).
