04 March 2013 SHILPA,

IF ANY APPLICANT HAD GOT THE AADHAR NO. IT WILL BE MENTIONED IN FORM-49A.

THIS IS NOT VALID RESIDENT ADDRESS PROOF.

CLARIFICATION:

Aadhaar number is Unique Identification Number allotted to every resident of India. It is based on individual’s biometric details like iris scan, thumb and fingerprints. This data is said to be unique to every individual and thus can give assurance about the uniqueness of an individual. Keeping the uniqueness factor in mind, it is proposed to use this number for opening bank accounts, and for all those services which require a person to produce his ID.

But Aadhaar is surely not a proof of citizenship. It is definitely an identity proof for all those individuals who do not have any document to confirm their identity. But simply by having aadhaar number one cannot enjoy citizen rights. It does not fall under the purview of citizenship act of India.

MUST NOTED:

1. Citizen of India located in India at the Time of Application for PAN
