Offline Solution: How to Update Your Mobile Number at the Nearest Aadhaar Service Center

Tech News: Today, linking Aadhaar card and mobile number is not just a formality, but has become the foundation of your digital life. From banking to ration, subsidy to passport, every government and private service has become dependent on the duet of Aadhaar and mobile. But when there is a small interruption in this chain like OTP not coming-the whole system comes to a halt.

Aadhaar and mobile: A digital pair

Imagine, when you apply for gas subsidy or login to the online pension portal, you need a code-OTP. This code proves that you are you, and no one else can avail the service in your place. This is the reason why linking Aadhaar to mobile is no longer an 'option', but a necessity.

When OTP disappears: The real challenge

You filled the form, completed the process, but got stuck at the last step-because OTP did not come. What to do in such a situation?

These could be the reasons:

• The old number linked to Aadhaar is now closed.
• The new number was never registered.
• Temporary network problem.
• Server down or connection to UIDAI failed.
• And this does not mean that your process should stop.

Solution: Offline way, reliable way

If you are not getting OTP on your mobile, then there is no need to worry online. UIDAI has already prepared a solution for this.

You can go to the nearest Aadhaar Seva Kendra or official post office and get your mobile number updated without the help of any agent.

Just carry these three things:

• Aadhaar card in original
• An identity proof (PAN/Voter ID)
• New mobile number

After biometric verification, your mobile gets updated within a few minutes and from next time OTP will come without interruption.
