Google takes blame for Aadhaar helpline number in Android phones

After Aadhaar governing body UIDAI denied asking phone manufacturers or telecom operators to add its helpline number in Android devices, Google has accepted it is responsible for the error. Google says the alleged UIDAI helpline was "inadvertently coded" along with the 112 distress helpline in the Android release given to Indian manufacturers in 2014. Google apologised for "any concern caused".
