AADHAAR - UID CARDS

The Department of Posts has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Unique identification Authority of India (UIDAI) to become a Registrar for enrolment process for issue of UID cards (Aadhaar cards).

UIDAI’s mandate is to issue every resident a unique identification number linked to the resident's demographic and biometric information, which they can use to identify themselves anywhere in India, and to access a host of benefits and services.

With Aadhaar, a resident will be able to prove his identity for various purposes like opening bank account, availing health services, getting mobile connection etc. Enrolment process by the Department of Posts has commenced in many states in the country.

Tamil Nadu Postal Circle, which covers both Tamil Nadu State and Pondicherry UT, has proposed to commence the enrolment in Tamil Nadu. Enrolment of residents for Aadhaar cards was launched at Anna Road Head Post Office, Chennai 600002 on 25/10/2011 and further extended to various post offices in the state.
