Mamata-led WB govt moves SC against mandatory Aadhaar rules
Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee-led West Bengal government has approached the Supreme Court, challenging the Centre's decision to make Aadhaar mandatory for availing the benefits of various social welfare schemes. This comes days after CM Banerjee announced that she would rather have her mobile phone disconnected than follow the government rule which mandates linking phone numbers to Aadhaar.
