If you lost your physical Aadhaar card, you have an option to get a soft copy online free of cost. Here are the quick steps that you need to follow
Go to the UIDAI My Aadhaar portal (https://uidai.gov.in/en/my-aadhaar/get-aadhaar.html)
Now you'll see two options. You can enter either your 12-digit Aadhaar number or the Enrollment ID you received when you first registered for Aadhaar.
Now enter the mobile number linked to your Aadhaar. You'll receive a one-time password (OTP) on this number.
Once the OTP is verified, you'll be able to download your e-Aadhaar. This will be a password-protected PDF file.
If you prefer a physical copy, you can order a reprint of your Aadhaar PVC card through the same portal by following a similar process. There will be a small fee of Rs 50 for the reprint
