Latest News The Supreme Court Wednesday declared the Centre's flagship Aadhaar scheme as Constitutionally valid.

The apex court's five-judge Constitution bench headed by Chief Justice Dipak Misra said Aadhaar is meant to help benefits reach the marginalised sections of the society and takes into account the dignity of people not only from personal but also from the community point of view. The top court said Aadhaar is serving much bigger public interest and Aadhaar means unique and it is better to be unique than being best.

The verdict was pronounced on a batch of pleas challenging the constitutional validity of Aadhaar Verdict scheme and its enabling 2016 law.

The bench had on May 10 reserved the verdict on the matter after a marathon hearing that went on for 38 days, spanning four-and-half months.
