 Aadhaar Data and Privacy Protections

  • The Aadhaar Act limits access to biometric data (fingerprints, iris scans) to protect privacy. 

  • Core biometric information can only be disclosed through a High Court order under Section 33(1).

  • The challenge is balancing privacy with the right to dignity, especially when biometric data is essential for identifying deceased individuals.

Challenges in Identifying Unidentified Deceased

  • Many deceased individuals are from disadvantaged backgrounds—homeless, migrants, or accident victims—without identification or family connections, leading to unreported missing persons.

  • Police collect evidence, fingerprints, and check against missing person records, but databases are often limited to criminal records, slowing down identification.

  • Even in decomposed bodies, fingerprints can help identify the deceased, making fingerprint data crucial in such investigations.

Need for Re-evaluating Biometric Restrictions

  • Allowing police access to Aadhaar data (with FIR) could expedite identifying deceased persons and help families with closure.

  • Instead of requiring a High Court order, a jurisdictional magistrate could authorize biometric data access, reducing judicial burden and respecting privacy.

  • Unlocking Aadhaar data for deceased identification aligns with the constitutional right to dignity and life, especially for marginalized individuals lacking access to justice.

  • In the United States, law enforcement agencies can access advanced identification tools through the Deceased Persons Identification (DPI) Services, indicating the potential benefits of reconsidering India’s restrictions.
