News from Aadhaar: The updated Aadhaar card updating guidelines have been released by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), with the goal of making the process more straightforward and giving cardholders more flexibility. The Aadhaar (Enrolment and Update) Rules have been amended to bring about these modifications, which apply to both online and offline methods.
Options for both online and offline updates
Aadhaar cardholders can now update information online or offline thanks to the new regulations. Updating the Central Identities Data Repository (CIDR) can be done via the UIDAI website, the mobile application, or by going to the closest Aadhaar Seva Kendra.
In contrast to the 2016 regulations, which mainly permitted updates of online addresses, the new guidelines have eliminated these limitations, which may allow updates of various details, including mobile numbers, online.
