The linking of the Aadhaar and the PAN cards is in contempt of the Supreme Court verdict that states that the Aadhaar is not mandatory to link with the PAN card which is meant for financial transactions.
It should be stressed here that the Aadhaar card contains sensitive and secret bio-metrics which is not to be shared by any of the government institutions.
The Rs 1,000 fine which is imposed is unnecessary since the Income Tax Department is not performing any favours for the violators.
