Supreme Court extends Aadhaar linkage deadline indefinitely

In a big relief for those who don't have Aadhaar or those who haven't yet linked the unique ID to various services, the Supreme Court has pushed the deadline for Aadhaar linkages indefinitely -- the March 31 deadline has been extended as the constitution bench of the apex court continues to hear the Aadhaar matter. The government had earlier told the Supreme Court that it might consider extending the March 31 deadline for linking Aadhaar to services like banks accounts and mobile numbers.
