The Supreme Court had ruled that Aadhaar could not be made mandatory for availing benefits under the various social security schemes. Following the order, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), also made it clear that providing Aadhaar number of students will be optional and not mandatory. However, some schools are not only forcing students to provide the UID number, but also arranging camps for enrolment of Aadhaar for those who do not have the UID number.
