Baal Aadhaar Update Now Free: UIDAI Simplifies Process for Children's Biometrics

• UIDAI offers free updates for Baal Aadhaar cards, crucial for children under 5, at ages 5 and 15.
• Baal Aadhaar, linked to parents' Aadhaar, requires biometric updates (fingerprints, iris, photo) at age 5 and again at 15.
• Failure to update can lead to an inactive Aadhaar, causing issues with school admissions, subsidies, and other benefits.
• The update process involves visiting the UIDAI website, booking an online appointment at an Aadhaar Centre, and providing necessary documents.
• No fees are charged for these mandatory updates, ensuring financial relief and correct identity for children.

Why It Matters: UIDAI has made Baal Aadhaar updates free and easy, ensuring children's Aadhaar remains active and valid.
