Delhi. Supreme Court judge D.V. Chandrachud, who was involved in a constitutional bench hearing on Thursday on the petitions challenging the validity of Aadhaar, got angry. The judge said, “We are neither saving the government nor following the attitude of NGO.
Actually, advocate Shyam Dewan, appearing for petitioners opposing the Aadhaar scheme and its law, did not get satisfactory answer to the question, but Justice D.V. Chandrachur got annoyed. He was involved in the bench of five judges headed by Chief Justice Deepak Mishra. Deewan referred to the affidavit filed by the central government in this case, in which a report of World Bank was cited. In this report it was said that India has an estimated savings of $ 11 billion every year using the base in various schemes. The lawyer said that the report of the World Bank is not reliable because recently its chief Paul Romer had resigned, saying that there is no honesty in its data. Justice Chandrachud asked the Diwan, according to the petitioners, how much amount has been increased-pledged.
