The Aadhaar Number is a unique 12 digit identification number that acts as a proof of identity which can be used anywhere across India. Due to its authenticity, the aadhaar card can be used as a proof of address as well. The government of India has made Aadhaar linking mandatory for securing benefits and services including bank accounts, mobile number, LPG subsidy, PAN card, DigiLocker, Mutual Funds, Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana and so on. In Midnapur, there are many Aadhaar card enrollment centres and the same can be located via UIDAI’s portal.
