MS Dhoni's Aadhar details leaked; wife demands action from Ravi Shankar Prasad

It was a fan boy moment for the employee of the agency helping UIDAI in enrolling citizens for Aadhar when he met ace cricketer Dhoni at his home to collect his biometric data. However, in over enthusiasm, Dhoni’s personal details got shared on social media, leaving wife Sakshi enraged and demanding action from Union Law and Information and Technology Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad.

After Prasad promised prompt action, UIDAI director has blacklisted the agency for 10 years.

The security breach happened in the form of a tweet that the agency's Common Services Center did from its official handle. The tweet carried a photograph of Dhoni getting his biometric data registered, and another of his personal details on the Aadhaar website. The tweet with the details was later deleted.
