Aadhaar aaj India ka sabse zyada istemal hone wala identity document hai — bank account se lekar school admission, SIM card se lekar pension tak. Isliye jab Aadhaar mein koi detail galat ho, to woh ek chhoti si galti nahi rehti; woh har jagah rukavat ban jaati hai. Achhi baat yeh hai ki zyadatar updates aap ghar baithe kar sakte hain.
Pehle yeh samajhiye: kaunsa update online ho sakta hai
UIDAI do tarah ke updates alag karta hai — demographic (naam, janm-tithi, address, gender, mobile, email) aur biometric (fingerprint, iris, photo).
Online (myAadhaar portal se) sirf yeh ho sakta hai:
- Address update — supporting document ke saath
- Naam mein chhota correction — spelling level, life mein 2 baar tak
- Date of birth — sirf ek baar, valid proof ke saath
- Gender — sirf ek baar
- Language preference
Enrolment / Aadhaar Seva Kendra jaana zaroori hai in cases mein:
- Mobile number ya email add ya change karna
- Photo update
- Fingerprint ya iris update
- 5 aur 15 saal ki umar par bachchon ka mandatory biometric update (MBU)
Yeh distinction bahut important hai. Internet par bahut se blogs kehte hain "mobile number online update kariye" — yeh galat hai. Mobile update ke liye biometric authentication chahiye, jo sirf centre par hoti hai.
Online address update: step by step
- "myaadhaar.uidai.gov.in" par jaaiye. Aadhaar number daaliye, captcha bhariye, aur registered mobile par aaye OTP se login kariye.
- Dashboard par "Update Aadhaar Online" chuniye.
- "Address" select karke Proceed kariye.
- Naya address English aur apni local language dono mein bhariye. Portal transliteration suggest karta hai — usse verify zaroor kariye, kyunki auto-transliteration aksar naam-gaon galat likh deta hai.
- Proof of Address (PoA) upload kariye — original scanned colour copy, 2 MB se kam, JPEG/PNG/PDF.
- ₹50 fee online pay kariye.
- URN (Update Request Number) note kar lijiye. Yahi aapka tracking number hai.
Processing normally 7 se 30 din leti hai. Update hone par SMS aata hai, aur aap naya e-Aadhaar download kar sakte hain.
Valid Proof of Address ki list
Passport, bank passbook ya statement, ration card, voter ID, driving licence, electricity/water/gas/telephone bill (3 mahine se purana nahi), registered rent agreement, property tax receipt, insurance policy, gazetted officer ka signed address certificate, aur employer ka certificate (kuch categories ke liye).
Agar aapke paas apne naam par koi document nahi hai — jaise students ya newly-married mahilaayein — to Head of Family (HoF) based update ka option hai. Isme parivaar ka mukhiya apna Aadhaar aur relationship proof (ration card, marriage certificate, passport) deta hai, aur uske Aadhaar par OTP consent aata hai.
Naam update ka nazuk mamla
Naam update ke do case hote hain: spelling correction (Rahul Kumr → Rahul Kumar) aur legal name change (shaadi ke baad surname). Dono ke liye document alag hote hain.
Spelling correction ke liye PAN, passport, voter ID, ya service photo ID chal jaata hai. Legal name change ke liye marriage certificate, gazette notification, ya court order jaisa strong proof chahiye. UIDAI naam update life mein sirf do baar allow karta hai — isliye pehli baar mein hi bilkul sahi spelling dijiye, jaise aap chahte hain ki woh har jagah dikhe.
Mobile number update — centre par
Mobile number Aadhaar ka sabse critical field hai, kyunki har OTP wahin jaata hai. Agar aapka purana number band ho gaya hai:
- Nazdeeki Aadhaar Seva Kendra ya authorised bank/post office centre par jaaiye.
- Aadhaar update form bhariye ya operator ko details bataiye.
- Fingerprint se biometric authentication kariye — koi document zaroori nahi.
- ₹50 fee dijiye aur acknowledgement slip lijiye.
Yeh update aksar 24 se 72 ghante mein reflect ho jaata hai.
Bachchon ka Aadhaar aur MBU
5 saal se chhote bachche ka Aadhaar "Baal Aadhaar" hota hai — usme biometrics nahi hote. 5 saal aur phir 15 saal ki umar par Mandatory Biometric Update karana zaroori hai, warna Aadhaar inactive ho sakta hai. Yeh update nishulk hai agar samay par karayein.
Aadhaar ko 10 saal baad update karna
UIDAI ne salaah di hai ki agar aapka Aadhaar 10 saal se update nahi hua hai, to aap identity aur address proof dobara upload karein. Yeh compulsory nahi hai lekin isse aapka record verified rehta hai aur baad mein bank ya passport verification mein dikkat nahi aati.
Fees, ek nazar mein
- Demographic update (online ya centre): ₹50
- Biometric update: ₹100
- Bachchon ka MBU (samay par): free
- e-Aadhaar download: free
- PVC Aadhaar card order: ₹50
Agar koi operator isse zyada maange, to receipt maangiye aur UIDAI helpline 1947 par shikayat kariye.
Status track karna aur rejection
"myaadhaar.uidai.gov.in" par "Check Enrolment & Update Status" mein URN daalkar status dekhiye. Agar request reject ho jaaye, to reason bataya jaata hai — sabse aam kaaran hain: document blurry hona, document par naam aur Aadhaar naam ka mismatch, aur address document 3 mahine se purana hona.
Reject hone par fee wapas nahi milti, isliye upload se pehle scan ko zoom karke padhiye — agar aap nahi padh paa rahe, verifier bhi nahi padh payega.
Suraksha: yeh zaroor kariye
- Aadhaar lock kar dijiye jab tak zaroorat na ho, aur biometric lock hamesha on rakhiye.
- Kisi ko bhi Aadhaar OTP mat batayiye. UIDAI kabhi call karke OTP nahi maangta.
- Public computer par e-Aadhaar download mat kariye; agar karna pade, download folder khaali kar dijiye.
- Saal mein ek baar "Aadhaar Authentication History" check kariye — isse pata chalta hai ki aapka Aadhaar kahan-kahan use hua.
