If you fail to link your Aadhaar card with your mobile operator or with your Bank you may not get uninterrupted service till the time you link and update it. But, what is more surprising that PMO and other few offices of Central government don't have Aadhaar card details of Modi's Ministers.

Modi Government has made linking Aadhaar card mandatory to get benefits of all government services that the 125 crore Indian citizen utilise. But, PMO does not have the information about the Aadhaar card details of its own Ministers working under Modi government. This information has come to light through a reply which was provided to RTI Activist Anil Galgali for his query.

Galgali said, "It is surprising to see that PMO or other few concern departments don't have data of Aadhaar card with them of their own ministers. Yes, PM does have an Aadhaar card number but due to security reason details were not given to me."

Moreover, the RTI application filed by Galgali was transferred to 5 different Ministries. The RTO application made rounds to Cabinet Secretariat, Lok Sabha Secretariat, Rajya Sabha Secretariat, Information and Technology Ministry, and finally reached UIDAI where Galgali got an answer from the Under Secretary, PMO.

The information regarding the PM's Aadhaar number was rejected under Section 8(1) of the RTI Act 2005. Information which relates to personal information the disclosure of which has not relationship to any public activity or interest, or which would cause unwarranted invasion of the privacy of the individual unless the Central Public Information officer or State Public Information officer or the appellate authority, as the case may be satisfied that the larger public interest justifies the disclosure of such Information.

"It shows that they say something but don't follow it. I would like to appreciate the efforts of RTI activist who brought this information in light. Common people are not getting benefits of government schemes unless they have Aadhaar card linked to Gas connection, bank etc but here we have ministers who have not shared their Aadhaar numbers it seems. That's why PMO or other departments don't have information about this." said Shaktisinh Gohil, a Congress leader.

Government is advertising with big ads and are asking people to link their Aadhaar cards with their Bank accounts and even their mobile connections along with PAN cards. But, considering the information revealed after the RTI by Galgali, it seems that Modi's own ministers have ignored PM Modi's instructions. It also seems like rules for common people are slightly a bit different than the ones in power.
