Are you stupid ? Because it strikes me that you are phenomenally so.

While Aadhar does not share biometric features, by being an authentication oracle, it makes it trivial for any massive organization like Jio to build their own second-party 'verified by Aadhar' databases which have even fewer legislative regulations (if that were at all possible).

So no, "we" will not "shut up".

You can't get a passport without the biometric id. The parent appears to have chosen the phrasing quite consciously.
