The Court added interest of 7.5% per annum for delaying\/withholding the payment of salary.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In December 2015, the Trust had issued a circular directing all employees to register their Aadhaar, failing which salary will not be credited to their account. The petitioner refused and approached the court to appeal for withdrawal of this circular. At this time, another petition was going on in the Supreme Court challenging the linking of Aadhaar with various schemes and payments. The respondent side contended that out of 800 employees, the petitioner was the sole employee who had objected to the linking.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Court held, that even as a sole objector he had the right to dissent and the Port Trust had not been able to justify by what authority they were upholding his salary just because the matter was pending in the Supreme Court. Now that the Supreme Court has released its verdict in<em>\u00a0K.S. <\/em><em>Puttaswamy v.
