One of the most important documents in India is Aadhaar card. Aadhaar is now a required document in order to create bank accounts, participate in most government schemes, and other tasks. Therefore, it is crucial to keep the information on this page current to prevent any inconveniences.
As a result, the government has made the Aadhaar document update service available online free of charge for three months, from June 14. The Aadhaar platform is used to charge residents Rs 25 to update their documents. People should be aware that this service is only available for free on the myAadhaar webpage. This means that individuals must still pay a cost of Rs. 50 at physical Aadhaar centres in order to update their name, date of birth, residence, and other demographic information.
"The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has decided to allow residents to update documents in their Aadhaar online free of cost, a people-centric move that will benefit millions of residents...The free service is available for the next three months, i.e., March 15 to June 14, 2023," the official statement said.
