The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) is testing the new app of Aadhar. This will complete the process of verification through face.
Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnav said that through this app, the process of Aadhaar verification has been made as easy as UPI payment. Digital verification of Aadhaar will be possible in a moment just through QR code. Aadhaar is the basis of many initiatives. In such a situation, the new app will make many things easier.
What will the new Aadhaar app be like?
The new Aadhaar app will be completely secure, which ensures that the data related to Aadhaar will not be leaked anywhere. Face authentication can be done through this app. Any person will have complete control over his personal information. Only as much information related to Aadhaar will be shared with another person as is necessary.
what happens now
Till now, in the name of Aadhaar verification, any person’s name, address, mobile number and other personal information is sought. Whereas no one needs that much information. About 750 people including senior policy makers, experts, technocrats and professionals participated in the program.
Aadhaar helps in economic development
Addressing the stakeholders, the minister said that how can we integrate AI with DPI to advance development. This is also being worked on intensively.
