A meeting was held by DDG UIDAI, Bhawna Garg with DC Patiala, Sakshi Sawhney to review the progress of Aadhaar project in the district. The increasing uses of Aadhaar and the new guidelines of the Government of India were also discussed.
During the meeting Garg informed that the government has initiated an exercise to strengthen residents’ Aadhaar by updating their latest Proof of Identity (POI) and Proof of Address (POA) documents, if they had enrolled for Aadhaar before 2015 and have not updated it even once. She appealed residents to update their Aadhaar by uploading supportive documents, such as the latest the POI and POA documents at the nearest Aadhaar centre. She also informed that this facility can also be availed through online services of UIDAI and it is free upto 14th Dec, 2023.
She stressed upon the importance of having mobile number registered in Aadhaar as the resident can avail various Aadhaar services online by logging in at https://myaadhaaruidai.govin/ or through mAadhaar application of UIDAI.
Since Aadhaar has emerged as the ‘most widely accepted proof of identity, with provisions to identify a resident through biometric authentication, residents will be able to use it securely by locking their biometrics online.
