The Assam government today said it has intimated the Supreme Court of its inability to stick to the March 31 deadline for linking Aadhaar with various core services. The state government has conveyed the message to the apex court via the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), a minister told the Assembly today.
“The Assam government has already intimated the Supreme Court through the UIDAI (about not sticking to the deadline), So, there is no need to panic (for linking the Aadhaar card),” Parliamentary Affairs Minister Chandra Mohan Patowary told the Assembly. The Income Tax Department has already excluded Assam from linking Aadhaar by March 31, he claimed. The issue was raised by All India United Democratic Front MLA Aminul Islam during the Zero Hour.
