Recently, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology launched the ‘Aadhaar Good Governance Portal’ (swik.meity.gov.in). Through this portal, government and non-government organizations will be able to verify Aadhaar. Companies will also be able to perform tasks like employee attendance and customer identification easily. The 24×7 Aadhaar face authentication will allow services to be available anytime, anywhere.

After receiving approval from the central government, private organizations will be able to use Aadhaar-based face authentication. A detailed SOP will be provided to these organizations on how to apply and join Aadhaar authentication. This includes sectors such as hospitality, healthcare, e-commerce, education, and credit rating services. The key advantage is that Aadhaar face authentication will not require customers to submit documents repeatedly, making services like e-KYC and exam registration much easier.

Aadhaar Card: An Important Document

The Aadhaar card is a vital document for Indian citizens. Issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), this 12-digit number contains personal details such as your address, date of birth, and more. It serves as proof of identity, helping you avail of various government and non-government services. It is also used for updating PAN details or filing GST returns. If you need to update the mobile number linked to your Aadhaar or forget which number is linked, there’s no need to worry. You can easily find this information through the portal.
