It aims to ensure that various agencies and institutions can make better use of the digital infrastructure created by the government. It is necessary to use these infrastructure to make people’s life easier with dignity.

Let us tell you that no person has to pay money to get a new Aadhar card. If a person gets his Aadhaar updated such as correction in name, address, date of birth, e-mail etc., then he will have to pay a charge for that. 50 rupees have to be paid for demographic update and 100 for biometric update.

Aadhar card is a mandatory document in the country

Aadhar card is a mandatory document in our country. The Government of India has linked all the schemes with the Aadhar card. Around 311 central schemes of 54 ministries are covered under the Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) platform using Aadhaar.

The PM Kisan scheme run by the central government is based on the Aadhaar platform. Under this scheme, after every 4 months, 2000 rupees are directly transferred to the bank account of about 10 crore farmers. Aadhaar Verification means that the Aadhaar number is being used to correctly identify the beneficiary of a scheme.
