Supreme Court's Tight Slap to BJP Govt.

Here is a huge shocker to the BJP led NDA government at the centre. The Supreme Court on Thursday ruled that privacy is a fundamental right because it is intrinsic to the right to life.

"Right to Privacy is an integral part of Right to Life and Personal Liberty guaranteed in Article 21 of the Constitution," the SC's nine-judge bench ruled unanimously.

The Apex Court's judgement is a huge shocker to Aadhaar as the Centre now has to convince SC that forcing citizens to give a sample of their fingerprints and their iris scan does not violate privacy.

The BJP has not only made Aadhaar mandatory but has extended it to encapsulate almost every single aspect of an individual's life. 

It then remains to be seen how well the BJP government implements the right to privacy act as a fundamental right.
