The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) announced the opening of 55 Aadhaar Seva Kendras (ASK) on October 2, 2021, as part of a project to install 166 Aadhaar Seva Kendras in 122 cities throughout India. In addition, there are around 52,000 Aadhaar enrolment facilities maintained by banks, post offices, state governments, and other authorities. Over 70 lakh people have been served by these ASKs from 9:00 a.m. until 5:30 p.m throughout the week.
What is Aadhaar Enrolment Centre or Aadhaar Seva Kendras (ASK)?
Aadhaar Seva Kendras (ASK) is nothing but a one-stop hub to avail all Aadhaar-related services. Indian residents can apply for dedicated Aadhaar enrolment and update services at these centers across all metro cities, all state capitals and Union Territories. Although UIDAI provides digital Aadhaar services on its website, in the digital era, residents who are not tech-savvy, such as senior citizens or residents from rural areas, Aadhaar Seva Kendras are a show stopper, as they provide a fully air-conditioned surrounding with pre-installed wheel-chairs to satisfy the elderly and physically-disabled residents in a friendly manner.
Any Indian citizen can go to an Aadhaar Seva Kendra to apply for Aadhaar Enrolment or to update Aadhaar demographic details, update Aadhaar biometric details, and also to download and print a digital format of Aadhaar Card. Any Indian citizen (even NRIs) can use these services at any Aadhaar Seva Kendra across the nation within the given time slot of 9:00 a.m. until 5:30 p.m every day.
For residents who prefer to schedule an appointment in order to visit near ASK, they are provided with a token number prior to their visit, the ASK uses an online Appointment Management System (AMS), and an automated Token Management System (TMS) to serve residents in a token-wise system or numbering system.
