Aadhaar Card Status Check: Big news for Aadhaar Card holders. Recently, news broke that UIDAI has deactivated over 20 million Aadhaar numbers. This has caused panic among people, who are wondering if their Aadhaar numbers have been deactivated. Therefore, it’s important to check the status in such a situation.
If Aadhaar becomes inactive, many important tasks are disrupted. Everything from bank account updates to subsidies, pensions, identification, and mobile services are affected. Therefore, it’s wise to check whether your Aadhaar is currently active. You can check your Aadhaar status from the comfort of your home in just a few minutes. To do this, you need to visit the UIDAI website. Then, enter your Aadhaar number and enter the OTP in the Verify Email/Mobile service.
If the OTP arrives immediately, Aadhaar is active. If the OTP doesn’t arrive or an error appears, it could be deactivation. You can also check through the mAadhaar app. If your profile opens upon logging in, Aadhaar is active. If the app doesn’t allow you to log in or your profile isn’t visible, your status may be deactivated. You can also check directly from the Resident UIDAI Portal whether your Aadhaar is active or deactivated.
If you don’t want to check online, you can call the UIDAI toll-free number 1947. Customer care will immediately provide you with your Aadhaar number and provide you with a status check. This check is important because Aadhaar is required for many everyday services.
