In collaboration with Karnataka for Kashmir, we organised a discussion on 'Creativity, Politics and Internet Censorship' on May 25, 2016. Mahum Shabir, a legal activist and artist, Mir Suhail, political cartoonist with Kashmir Reader and Rising Kashmir, and Habeel Iqbal, a lawyer who has worked with several justice groups in Kashmir, shared some of their work and experiences.

The Lok Sabha passed the Aadhaar (Targeted Delivery of Financial and Other Subsidies, Benefits and Services) Bill, 2016 on March 11, 2016, to give legislative basis to the Aadhaar number assigning being done by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI). The Bill was introduced, by Finance Minister, Mr. Arun Jaitley, as a money bill, and there was no public consultation to evaluate the provisions therein even though there are very serious ramifications for the Right to Privacy and the Right to Association and Assembly. Since its inception in 2009, the UIDAI project has been shrouded in controversy due to various questions raised about privacy, technological limitations, security concerns, and legal basis. We have documented various concerns with the Aadhaar Bill 2016, as well as with the project at large.
