Aadhaar has crossed the 125-crore mark at the end of the year 2019. This means that these many residents of India possess the 12-digit unique identity number as of date. The achievement comes along with the rapidly increasing use of Aadhaar as the primary identity document by the holders of this card.
"This is evident from the fact that Aadhaar-based authentication services have been used close to 37,000 crore times since inception. At present, UIDAI receives about 3 crore authentication requests every day," said a government release.
"Residents are more inclined on keeping their details in Aadhaar updated," the release added.
