This Aadhaar Card Does Not Reveal Your Full Identity Number. Details Here
Masked Aadhaar can be used for e-KYC at places where sharing of Aadhaar number is not necessary, the UIDAI or Unique Identification Authority of India said on microblogging website Twitter. "Masked Aadhaar" helps users to take up e-KYC (Know Your Customer) - an electronic process to verify the identity of the customer. The UIDAI issues the Aadhaar number as well as the Aadhaar card, which is the personal identification card based on the Aadhaar system. The masked Aadhaar option can be used while downloading a digital copy of Aadhaar card, the UIDAI added.
