How to update the phone number on your Aadhaar card
The Aadhaar card is needed almost everywhere to perform any official task. Of course, it is not always possible to carry a printed copy of the Aadhaar card. But since the phone is your constant companion, downloading an electronic copy of your Aadhaar card is the best idea to save yourself from any crisis. The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), the organization that is the key to all things Aadhaar, is constantly developing new services to help users. In light of the pandemic, the UIDAI has announced that Aadhaar card users can download Aadhaar online anytime, anywhere. The UIDAI has launched a direct Aadhaar link for this purpose, through which users can download their unique 12-digit ID, which has become a crucial document in many areas of life. The Aadhaar card can be obtained at any time through Aadhaar's direct website https://eaadhaar.uidai.gov.in/.
