HC on Privacy: Karnataka High Court Declines Woman’s Request Seeking Information About Her Husband’s Aadhaar Card, Says Marriage Does Not Supersede Right to Privacy
A marriage does not supersede an individual's right to privacy, which is protected by the Aadhaar Act, according to the division bench of Justices Sunil Dutt Yadav and Vijaykumar A. Patil.
A single-judge order instructing the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) to reevaluate a woman's request for information about her husband's Aadhaar card under the Right to Information Act (RTI Act) was recently overturned by the Karnataka High Court. A marriage does not supersede an individual's right to privacy, which is protected by the Aadhaar Act, according to the division bench of Justices Sunil Dutt Yadav and Vijaykumar A. Patil. The Court reasoned that the hearing process outlined in Section 33 of the Aadhaar (Targeted Delivery of Financial and Other Subsidies, Benefits and Services) Act, 2016 protects such a right.
