The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) is a statutory authority established by the Government of India under the provisions of the Aadhaar Act, 2016. UIDAI is responsible for issuing Aadhaar, a unique 12-digit identification number to residents of India, based on their biometric and demographic data. The Aadhaar system aims to provide a reliable and secure identity to every resident, enabling easy access to government and private services.
The UIDAI Portal serves as a centralized digital platform that allows residents to manage and access Aadhaar-related services conveniently and securely. Through this portal, individuals can perform essential tasks such as Aadhaar enrollment, updating demographic details, checking Aadhaar status, downloading e-Aadhaar, locking or unlocking biometrics, and accessing various value-added services—all from a single, trusted interface.
UIDAI is committed to maintaining the highest standards of data security and privacy. Advanced encryption technologies and strict access controls are implemented to ensure that personal information is protected at every stage. The authority follows a transparent and accountable framework to safeguard residents’ data and uphold trust in the Aadhaar ecosystem.
The vision of UIDAI is to empower residents with a unique identity that is robust, scalable, and inclusive. Aadhaar plays a vital role in enabling efficient service delivery, reducing duplication, and promoting transparency across welfare schemes and public services. It helps residents verify their identity quickly and seamlessly, both online and offline.
The UIDAI Portal is designed with a user-friendly approach, ensuring accessibility for people across diverse regions and backgrounds. Regular updates and improvements are made to enhance user experience, security, and service availability.
By leveraging technology and innovation, UIDAI continues to support India’s digital transformation journey. The UIDAI Portal stands as a trusted gateway for Aadhaar services, reflecting the authority’s mission to provide secure, inclusive, and reliable identity solutions for every resident of India.
