Udaipur, November 28 (Udaipur Kiran): The district-level Aadhaar Monitoring Committee meeting was held on Friday evening at the DoIT auditorium under the guidance of District Collector Namit Mehta and chaired by Additional District Collector Dipendra Singh Rathore.
Joint Director of the Department of Information Technology and Communication, Pooja Sahu, welcomed the participants and discussed the meeting agenda. The current status of Aadhaar centres operating under various registrars in the district was reviewed during the meeting.
Additional District Collector Rathore laid special emphasis on increasing Aadhaar enrolment for children in the 0 to 5 age group and speeding up the mandatory biometric updation process.
