While we Indians already had a matter of claims about the Aadhaar privacy, whether our data is encrypted securely or not.
Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) chief, RS Sharma tweeted his 12 digit Aadhaar Card Number, openly challenges hackers to prove how they can harm to any security risk.

My Aadhaar number is 7621 7768 2740
Now I give this challenge to you: Show me one concrete example where you can do any harm to me!

With the confidence towards how secure the Aadhaar card is, his move backfired him(I think so).
Soon after he revealed his Aadhaar Number, French security researcher, Elliot Alderson comes in the picture. Elliot Alderson in his series of tweets revealed alleged personal details of RS Sharma like phone number, bank account, WhatsApp photo, Pan Number.

He suggested Mr, Sharma not to disclose Aadhaar Number in public. Not just this, he even recommended changing his Gmail account password.

The phone number linked to this #Aadhaar number is 9958587977 https://t.co/ijlxGBBl4Z

People managed to get your personal address, dob and your alternate phone number.

I stop here, I hope you will understand why make your #Aadhaar number public is not a good idea pic.twitter.com/IVrReb4xIM

No bank account is linked to this #Aadhaar number

— Elliot Alderson (@fs0c131y) July 28, 2018

Alderson has also asked for PM Modi Aadhaar Card Number,

Hi @narendramodi,

Can you publish your #Aadhaar number (if you have one)?

Regards,

Previously, Aderson has revealed security loopholes in our Aadhaar data system. He has also revelaed some flaws in Khimbo and Bolo Messenger apps too.

However, after the data was displayed on the Twitter platform by Alderson, RS Sharma is not convinced because on internet a lot of such details are already present.

This is what Sharma Tweeted:

Itna darte kyon ho bhai? Disclaimer ki kya jaroorat hai? Yeh details koi state scret nahin hain. Meri date of birth Bharat Sarkar ke portal par 40 saal se chhapi hui hai. Ghar ka address thoda purana hai. Naya chahiye to main de doonga. Chahiye kya?

Looks like you are not as good as you claim to be! All my bank accounts are linked to Aadhaar. Further, even if you know my bank account number, so what!

— RS Sharma (@rssharma3) July 28, 2018

Thanks, Asif, for your concern. However, the purpose of this is to debunk the theory that Aadhaar compromises the privacy of the person.
