He has stated that the term "national security" has not been defined, thus making the aforesaid provision open to a wide interpretation. In the absence of a definition, any and every circumstance could be brought under the purview of national security. The law needs to put in place crystal-clear parameters as to what constitutes national security, when it talks of sharing of personally data with third parties.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.catchnews.com/national-news/aadhaar-must-be-expanded-only-after-national-security-is-defined-pavan-duggal-takes-a-closer-look-at-contentious-bill-1458536635.html|title=Expand Aadhaar only after 'national security' is defined.
