Union Govt Requests Aadhaar App On All New Smartphones

The Indian government wants smartphone makers like Apple and Samsung to pre-install the Aadhaar app on new devices. However, manufacturers are pushing back, citing privacy risks and production challenges. This request follows a similar rejected plan for the Sanchar Saathi app, as companies argue that such mandates are rare in democratic nations.
