Don't have time to link your mobile number with Aadhaar? Soon you may not need to visit the telecom service provider's store with your Aadhaar. The Department of Telecom and telecom service providers are working on a process of SMS/IVRS and app-based verification. The process will link your Aadhaar and mobile number using one-time password or IVRS call.As per a DoT order, service providers will enable a scheme to use OTP-based verification for mobile users through SMS or voiced-based IVRS call or via mobile app.The users will have to message their Aadhaar number from their mobile phone at a designated number provided by service providers.The service providers will then do a demographic verification of the number. Then the service provider will send OTP request to UIDAI. UIDAI will then send the OTP on the mobile number.The user will send this OTP to the designated mobile number and e-KYC will be verified.Some mobile subscribers are unable to visit stores of service providers due to factors such as lack of time, old age, chronic illness or disability, etc. DoT has directed the service providers to facilitate doorstep verification for such consumers.With these steps, the government intends to address the concerns of subscribers taking into account their convenience and privacy.
