Aadhaar Card Enrolment Centres

Aadhaar Card Enrolment Centres

The Government of India has initiated various schemes and social welfare programmes requiring the beneficiary to prove their identity to avoid misuse. For the same, authorities have also allowed the residents to get a single-use universal identification card known as Aadhaar Card. This not only gives the cardholder a hassle-free experience in procuring the welfare benefits but also helps the authorities to manage delivery strategies. As a result, transparency is established, and the government effectively maintains and operates the database. 

Since the idea was established and Aadhaar was mandated, the government, with the help of the UIDAI, has been focusing on a delivery strategy through Aadhaar Card Enrolment Centres. This guide provides readers with information about Aadhaar Card Enrolment Centers.
