Question

Accepted Answer

In its landmark Aadhaar ruling, the Supreme Court held that transaction metadata cannot be stored for more than six months. The Court also struck down Section 57 of the Aadhaar Act, thereby preventing private corporate bodies from demanding or contracting for Aadhaar data. Aadhaar is not mandatory for buying insurance policies.
