The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) plans to increase full Aadhaar enrolment and update centres for adults from 88 to 473 by September 2026. UIDAI CEO Bhuvnesh Kumar told The Hindu that adults often need to travel far to update their Aadhaar. Expanding centres means easier access and better services. These centres allow all modifications and new enrolments. Online updates are limited and biometrics or name updates need a visit to a centre. "We want at least one centre in every two districts," said Mr. Kumar. The exact number of adult enrollees is unclear but can mean lakhs of citizens due to India’s huge population. Mr. Kumar also revealed a partnership with Google to list Aadhaar centres via Google locations soon. On security, Aadhaar is now issued only after field verification by district officials to avoid illegal immigration. Most adult applicants are non-resident Indians or overseas citizens of India. Foreign nationals living in India can get Aadhaar as it is not proof of citizenship. UIDAI is tightening control over data changes, especially birth dates. "If someone has two different dates of birth in two documents, one is false," said Mr. Kumar. People can correct birth date once by affidavit but not twice. Parents who falsify children’s birth dates during enrolment risk criminal charges, as shown by a recent Allahabad High Court case that ordered an FIR against a parent for birth date irregularities.
