Filed by Ashwini Upadhyay, the petition seeks directions to be issued to both the governments to take appropriate steps to link movable and immovable property documents of citizens with their Aadhaar number to. Filed by Ashwini Upadhyay, the petition seeks directions to be issued to both the governments to take appropriate steps to link movable and immovable property documents of citizens with their Aadhaar number to curb corruption, black money generation and benami transaction.
