Masked Aadhaar Benefits: Aadhaar Card has become a very necessary and important document today. It has now become the strongest proof of our identity. Due to the increasing utility of Aadhaar, there is now a need to be more vigilant about it. This is because many cyber criminals are now misusing the Aadhaar of common people to commit financial fraud, as well as using it in some criminal activities. If you also want that no one can misuse your Aadhaar, then you should use Masked Aadhaar card.
Masked Aadhaar card is also issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI). It is not only different from the common Aadhaar but is also more secure than it. The normal Aadhaar card has 12 numbers of Aadhaar numbers printed on it. In the masked Aadhaar, only the last 4 numbers are printed. The first 8 Aadhaar numbers of the Aadhaar card are written as ‘XXXX-XXXX’ in the masked Aadhaar card ID. In this way, the Aadhaar card number of the Aadhaar card holder becomes invisible to strangers, which prevents misuse of Aadhaar.
Where can it be used?
The masked Aadhaar card is completely valid. It is issued by UIDAI only. The masked Aadhaar card can be used everywhere where the normal Aadhaar card is used. UIDAI has also appealed to people several times to give the masked Aadhaar card instead of giving the photocopy of the normal Aadhaar card so that misuse of Aadhaar can be avoided.
