Unique Authority of India (UIDAI) was established to provide enrollment services to the residents of India. The overall aim was to make the entire system transparent & foolproof. This has helped many residents to enjoy various Government subsidiaries. The introduction of the electronic system turned the way people are handled throughout the country.

They have to provide supportive documents such as PAN card, voter id card, passport and ration card, etc along with their Aadhar application form. The introduction of Aadhar has helped Government in controlling corruption, transparency, and terrorism in society. The Government is now well-aware of the problems of the people. The tax system improved just because of the UIDAI Aadhar system.

UIDAI is now a statutory Government organization. Initially, it was a part of the Planning Commission office. Maharashtra has the honor that it became the first state whose residents got the first-ever Aadhar card in the country. That card was issued on September 29, 2010.

The Aadhar card issued by UIDAI has the following characteristics:

  1. It is a 12 digit number.
  2. It is a unique number. It means that the number you have will not be issued to the other person in the country.
  3. At the time of enrollment, your personal information such as name, address, mobile number, etc, and biometric details are also taken.
  4. Personal information is called demographic details while biometric data is referred to as eye and fingerprint scans. This makes the entire registration process transparent & reliable.
  5. There are no charges for the Aadhar card. Every resident of India can apply to get it free.
  6. It works as a means to link your other services such as to link bank account & provident fund etc.
  7. It acts as a basic infrastructure over which other applications and systems can be developed.
  8. It encompasses the unique feature of portability. It can be authenticated at any place in the country. Now, you do not need to take support from your local office. The whole country is your town now.
  9. Aadhar’s electronic form is called Eaadhar. It is just like the original Aadhar card. It is acceptable at all places in India as an alternate.

The service provider validates the credentials of the customer using UID & Biometric details.
