Keep these things in mind before changing Aadhar card information

We all have seen a 12 digit number written on the Aadhar card. This number is given by the UIDAI to the residents of India after completing the verification process. And, by entering this number, it is possible to get all the information related to the identity of the cardholder. So the information given in this very important document of the present time should be correct. In such a situation, according to the official website of UIDAI, a person will be allowed to change his name on the Aadhaar card only twice. The gender of the Aadhaar holder i.e. gender and date of birth can also be changed only once. However, the date of birth can be updated only if your previous date of birth in Aadhaar has not been verified by UIDAI. Overall, at the time of enrollment for Aadhar card, it is important to check that there is no wrong information in the form. Because in the case of this document it is not possible to change the information frequently. And if you come up with something unusual, they’ll have to rethink their position.
