Order PVC Aadhaar Card Online : Aadhaar acts as a proof of identity of an individual. A unique Aadhaar number is issued to residents of India applying for Aadhaar.
The Aadhaar number that is issued to an individual is a 12-digit random number. The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) is the government authority that issues Aadhaar. Aadhaar is issued after completing the verification process and obtaining minimum demographic and biometric information of an individual.

UIDAI has introduced various forms of Aadhaar such as Aadhaar letter, m-Aadhaar and e-Aadhaar from time to time for the convenience of the residents.
