Download Aadhar Card without registered mobile number – UIDAI Latest update

Aadhar card is one of the most significant documents that almost every citizen of the country must-have. Sometimes even it gets mandatory to have an Aadhar card while going through the KYC process in the govt and non-got departments. The aadhar card now gets deeply integrated into our system and our day-to-day requirements from Bank loans to our vehicle registration. That is one of the reasons which makes having aadhar card online and offline one of the most significant documents in our life. Since the beginning the aadhar card issuing authority, the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), required a registered mobile number that is linked with the aadhar card to get an OTP while downloading aadhar card from the website.

In order to facilitate more ease of operating use of aadhar card the UIDAI has now made this process more convenient to the end-users. Most of the users find it difficult to get a duplicate aadhar card in case you lost your registered mobile number or you never get it registered with UIDAI.

Those Indian citizens who have lost their registered mobile number or not registered their mobile number with the UIDAI will have an option to download a duplicate aadhar card with the help of an alternate mobile number from the official website of UIDAI.
