Bombay High Court Calls for Action on Foreign Nationals Using Fraudulent Aadhaar Cards
The Bombay High Court has highlighted a pattern of foreign nationals allegedly infiltrating India and fraudulently obtaining identity documents, including Aadhaar cards, to claim Indian citizenship. The court noted gaps in inter-agency coordination and document verification, urging Central and State agencies to collaborate in tracing, deporting, and preventing the re-entry of such individuals. It also suggested amending the Aadhaar Act to strengthen investigative powers and address national security concerns linked to these fraudulent activities.
