Gurgaon makes Aadhaar compulsory for new and existing LPG connections

I have no idea how this is even legal.

Gurgaon announces mandatory Aadhaar cards for LPG connections - The Economic Times

The Gurgaon administration today announced that Aadhaar cards are now mandatory for obtaining LPG cylinders in the district.

Making the announcement, Gurgaon Deputy Commissioner T L Satyaprakash said that the orders have been sent to the LPG distributors in the district and they have been asked to ensure compliance in letter and spirit.

He said that time and again the district administration had been requesting the residents, especially the cooking gas consumers to get themselves enrolled for Aadhaar but the appeal did not evoke the desired response.

So the guy is pretty much admitting that this is a form of blackmail to get people to get their aadhaar cards.
