The Aadhaar Number is a unique 12-digit identification number that is different for every individual living in India. It is proof of one’s identity and address as a resident of the country. To make modifications to Aadhaar data easier, UIDAI announced the mAadhaar app that is free to use and can be used for a number of purposes.
One of these purposes can be creating a profile and adding profiles of family members on the mAadhaar app. The process to create and add the profiles of your family members is very simple.
