UIDAI can be ordered to disclose Aadhaar to court in sealed cover in exceptional cases: Delhi High Court

The Delhi High Court has ordered the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) to disclose Aadhaar-related information in exceptional cases, even if it involves a sealed cover. This decision emerged from a case where the court deemed that UIDAI must reveal specific details about Aadhaar to parties in legal disputes to ensure transparency and fairness. The ruling emphasizes the principle that the need for information in judicial processes outweighs the confidentiality maintained by UIDAI in certain instances.
