Aadhar is not a proof of citizenship, Law Minister Kiren Rijiju informed the Lok Sabha on Friday.
Separately, in response to a supplementary question during the Question Hour, Mr. Rijiju informed the House that it was difficult to cap or regulate the “exorbitant” fees charged by some lawyers in the country.
“It’s difficult for the government to regulate or put a cap on the fees of the advocates. It is true that some of the lawyers’ fees are so exorbitant that common people can’t hire them,” he said in reply to a question during Question Hour.
