Aadhaar has now become a mandatory thing for availing many services in India. According to the recent move taken by the Government of India, every citizen should link their Aadhaar number with PAN card, Bank accounts, mobile numbers and others.

Earlier, the process of linking mobile number with Aadhaar was full of harassment. As no one wants to go to the store and wait in the queue just for linking his/her mobile number with Aadhaar. But now, UIDAI has made the entire process quite simple. You just have to call on UIDAI’s toll-free number and follow the instructions and your mobile number will be linked to you Aadhaar easily.

As per recent announced by the Government, every citizen of India must link their mobile number with Aadhaar before 6th February 2018. The new method is only applicable for Airtel, Vodafone and Idea customers currently.
