Aadhaar Card update: Learn how to get your Aadhaar card through the UIDAI's direct link
Aadhaar Card is one of the important documents for all Indian citizens. The government of India has made it mandatory to have an Aadhaar card for every citizen of the country. Aadhaar card is issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI). Not only required for government schemes but Aadhaar is also required for financial services as well. It is also linked with bank accounts, vehicles and insurance policies etc. Aadhaar card contains the details of the person's name, date of birth, gender, address and photograph.
We don't always have a physical copy of our Aadhaar card all the time. UIDAI allows Indians to obtain their Aadhaar card through the official website.
The Aadhaar card can be downloaded through the direct Aadhaar link eaadhaar.uidai.gov.in.
In a tweet dated June 28, 2021, the UIDAI said, “You can choose to download ‘Regular Aadhaar’ that displays the complete Aadhaar number or ‘Masked Aadhaar’ which shows only the last four digits."
A video tutorial on how to download Aadhaar from eaadhaar.uidai.gov.in anytime anywhere has been also shared.
