Aadhaar Latest News: Aadhar card has become such an essential part of our life, without which many of our works are incomplete. Whether it is a matter of filing income tax returns, taking advantage of government schemes or even getting the corona vaccine, Aadhaar is needed everywhere. Aadhaar is required for most bank functions, from buying a house to getting a child’s birth certificate issued.
What will happen to Aadhaar after the death of the person?
But here we will not talk about the facilities or the need for Aadhaar, we will tell here that if a person dies, then what happens to his Aadhaar. In fact, the answer to this question has been given by the Minister of State for Electronics and Information Technology, Rajiv Chandrashekhar in the Lok Sabha. He said that after the death of a person, his Aadhaar is not deactivated, as there is no such provision.
No system to cancel Aadhaar: Government
Chandrashekhar said that at present there is no system to cancel the Aadhaar number of a deceased person. However, he told the Lok Sabha that the Registrar General of India had sought suggestions from UIDAI on the draft amendments to the Birth and Death Registration Act, 1969. So that the basis of the deceased can be taken while issuing the death certificate.
Link Aadhaar with Death Certificate
Currently, the Registrar of Births and Deaths is the custodian or custodian of the birth and death statistics. There is currently no mechanism to get the Aadhaar number of deceased persons from the registrar for deactivating Aadhaar. But once the framework for sharing the Aadhaar number among these entities is in place, the registrar will start sharing the Aadhaar number of the deceased with the UIDAI to deactivate it. Deactivating the Aadhaar or linking it with the death certificate will prevent it from being misused after the death of the Aadhaar owner.
Last month, UIDAI introduced the possibility of updating the mobile number linked with your Aadhaar number through the postman at his home. India Post Payments Bank and UIDAI have made arrangements to allow postmen to update mobile numbers of Aadhaar card holders.
