Aadhaar number made mandatory for students to receive midday meals

Students will now be required to have an Aadhaar number for getting their midday meals across the country. The HRD ministry issued a notification in this regard on the last day of February.

Cook-cum-helpers working under the midday meal scheme will also have to furnish Aadhaar number.

No SC Stay On 'Aadhaar For Social Benefits'; Centre Extends Deadline Till Sept 30 | Live Law

supreme court is now refusing to stay aadhaar imposition because the petitioner could not provide any documented proof that it was hurting the common man. it's insane. government is openly lying in courts about the savings from aadhaar. but people who have no access to official data are being told to provide data that is lying with government.

The Supreme Court on Tuesday refused to stay the government notification which mandated furnishing of Aadhaar cards from July 1 to avail benefits of 17 social schemes, including scholarships, right to food and mid-day meals.

This was after Additional Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, who appeared for the Centre, submitted that the cut-off date for those who do not possess the card has been extended till September 30 and they could avail the benefits till then by furnishing alternate ID proof like voter ID card, driving licence or PAN card.

“The Centre itself is saying nobody will be deprived of benefits. Heavens will not fall if we do not stay the notification. Such interim orders cannot be passed on mere apprehensions that somebody will be deprived of benefits. Show us some case and then we can do something about it,” a bench comprising Justice AM Khanwilkar and Justice Navin Sinha told senior counsel Shyam Divan, who had requested for an interim stay until the apex court’s final verdict on the constitutionality of Aadhaar to be heard by a constitution bench.

Divan kept arguing that showing of Aadhaar cards and subjecting to the scheme should be voluntary and not mandatory and its furnishing cannot be compelled.

Official word from the government is that you now have till September 30 to get an aadhaar number and no service would be denied to you till then without aadhaar. Anyone here can tell what reality on the ground is today.
