MSD's Aadhaar details compromised on web, furious wife tweets minister
The incident took place on Tuesday as a fan moment went sour.
The agency handling Aadhaar cards uploaded the information of Mahendra Singh Dhoni, prompting wife Sakshi to post an angry tweet.
"@rsprasad @CSCegov_ is there any privacy left ??? Information of adhaar card including application is made public property!#disappointed," her tweet read.

Prasad, who himself tweeted a picture of Dhoni receiving Aadhaar services, shot back with, "@SaakshiSRawat No it is not a public property. Does this Tweet divulge any personal information?"
Taking a step ahead, Mrs Dhoni pointed out about the form that was uploaded by the agency, prompting another tweet from the minister, who promised serious actions against the guilty.
"@SaakshiSRawat Thanks for bringing this to my notice. Sharing personal information is illegal. Serious action will be taken against this," Prasad's tweet read.
The controversy comes in midst of an alleged data breach pertaining to Aadhaar Card.
Though the Government of India has denied all allegation regarding the Aadhaar Card, the news of several firms storing user biometrics has done the rounds lately.
