Want to add Aadhaar card in DigiLocker? Here's a step-by-step guide

The Digital Aadhaar provided by DigiLocker is the same as the UIDAI's eAadhaar. DigiLocker has collaborated with UIDAI to make it available to customers immediately after linking their DigiLocker account to their Aadhaar card. The advantage of digital Aadhaar is that it can be shared with any agency or institution in electronic form, removing the need for photocopies or printouts.

In 2015, the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) created the DigiLocker, a digital portal where consumers may retain a duplicate of their electronic papers like as Aadhaar and PAN. It was designed with the intention of reducing the usage of physical papers and boosting the preservation of electronic records. Documents stored on the DigiLocker are identical to actual documents. The Digital Aadhaar provided by DigiLocker is the same as the UIDAI's eAadhaar.
