Aadhaar Verification Online and Offline: The Aadhaar is one of the most important documents. It is a verifiable 12-digit identification number issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) to the resident of India for free of cost. Now, as a precaution.
ainst the fraudsters, Aadhaar has recently tweeted from its official Twitter handle about how to verify Aadhaar both in the online and offline methods. One can also log in to the official website of Aadhaar at uidai.gov.in for further details.
A recent tweet from Aadhaar said, “Any Aadhaar is verifiable online/offline. To verify offline, scan the QR code on #Aadhaar. To verify online, enter the 12-digit Aadhaar on the link: resident.uidai.gov.in/verify. You can also do it using the #mAadhaar app.”
In order to verify offline, one simply has to scan the QR code on the e-Aadhaar or Aadhaar letter or PVC card. Again, in order to verify Aadhaar online, one has to follow some simple steps. They are as follows:
Step 1: One has to login to resident.uidai.gov.in/verify
Step 2: Now, one has to enter the Aadhaar number in the space provided
Step 3: After entering the Aadhaar number, one has to enter the captcha for verification
Step 4: Finally, one has to click on the option ‘Proceed to verify’
One can also enter the 12-digit number on the mAadhaar app for verification.
An Aadhaar user must note that there are several features of the mAadhaar app. Furthermore, The mAadhaar app can be used anywhere anytime within India. mAadhaar is more than Aadhaar card in a wallet. On one hand the mAadhaar profile is accepted as a valid ID proof by Airports and Railways. On the other hand, resident can use the features in the app to share their eKYC or QR code with service providers who sought Aadhaar verification of their customers before providing Aadhaar services.
Now, one must verify his or her Aadhaar by using either of the above-mentioned procedures so that one does not fall a prey in the hands of the fraudsters.
