Aadhaar card … It has become not just a number of 12 digits, but has become a part of our life without which no work is possible. To open an account with a bank, take a SIM card, or take advantage of any government scheme, Aadhaar is our biggest identity card everywhere. UIDAI, the organization that makes it, has also made some strict rules regarding its use. We often ignore these rules, but this mistake can be very heavy for us. There are some mistakes to Aadhaar, which can not only force you to pay a fine of thousands of rupees, but can also play the jail air. Do not forget these 4 mistakes: 1. Giving false information at the time of making it: This is the first and big mistake. If you deliberately give your name, address, date of birth or any other information wrong while making Aadhaar card, then this is a crime. In the eyes of UIDAI it is a fraud. If you are caught, you may be imprisoned up to 3 years or a fine of Rs 10,000 (or both). Therefore, always submit the correct document. Both who help and get help in this work will be considered guilty. Its punishment is also 3 years in prison and a fine of up to Rs 10,000.3. Leek to someone’s information: Sometimes some agencies or people collect your personal information (eg fingers or a scan of an eye pupil) in the name of making Aadhaar. It is illegal to do so without UIDAI’s permission. If someone leakes your information or sells to someone else, then it is a big crime. A fine of up to Rs 1 lakh on the company that does so and that person can be jailed for up to 3 years. If a person tries to hack, steal it or damage the system in the Aadhaar data center, then the most strict action is taken against him. For this crime, jail up to 10 years and a huge fine of up to Rs 10 lakh can be done for your convenience and safety. Use it with full honesty and responsibility. This is not just a card, your digital identity, which is your responsibility to protect.
