SC extends Aadhaar linkage deadline for all services to March 31

The Supreme Court has extended mandatory linking of Aadhaar for all services, including new bank accounts and mobile services to March 31, 2018. The deadline for linking Aadhaar with mobile services was earlier set at February 6 while that for new bank accounts was December 31.
However, the court ruled that new bank accounts can be opened without Aadhaar but applicants need to submit proof of Aadhaar application. The government on December 13 had extended the December 31 deadline for linking old bank accounts to Aadhaar numbers by three months to March 31, 2018.
Menwhile, the Supreme Court has also agreed to Congress leader Jairam Ramesh's plea against government introducing Aadhaar Act as a Money Bill in the parliament.
A five-judge Constitution Bench headed by Chief Justice Dipak Misra, in an interim order, also modified its earlier order with regards to linking of Aadhaar with mobile services and said the deadline of February 6 next year for this purpose also stood extended till March 31.
The apex court has also extended Aadhaar linkage for all services provided by the Centre and states to March 31. This means those availing welfare schemes have time till March 31 to link their accounts with the government’s biometric capture. The move follows the Centre updating the court on Thursday about extending deadlines for all services.
The apex court will hear the Aadhaar case on January 17, 2018.

  NASDAQ's Crack Will Rattle Global Equities During the week, the confidence of the bulls got shattered when tech-focused US companies crashed rattling the entire financial markets. Nasdaq's crash does not look like a normal correction but seems like a bigger downward spiral unfolding after valuations sky-rocketed. Given that US elections are only 52 days away, it seems unlikely that US markets will make fresh highs again and there is every likelihood that selling pressure may continue even in broader markets. Crude oil too has given up most of its gains and prices are below USD 40 per barrel on expectations of lower demand going ahead which suggests that global recovery might take longer than earlier anticipated. In contrast surprisingly, gold's move is not hinting at any major crash in the financial markets, given that gold prices consolidated and remained steady even when Nasdaq plummeted. One of the important ways to analyze the psyche of an investor is by measuring mut...
