Aadhaar data can't be used for criminal investigation: UIDAI
Aadhaar's governing body UIDAI on Friday said that use of biometric data for criminal investigation is not allowed under the Aadhaar Act. This comes after the National Crime Records Bureau said police should be provided with limited access to Aadhaar data, as it would aide in catching first-time offenders, besides identification of unidentified bodies.
