What happens if you don’t have an Aadhaar number?

Without Aadhaar authentication, you can’t access these services online. Those who do not have Aadhaar number may get a physical form from the RTO office by providing any other valid ID card.

How will this move benefit citizens?

“Providing such services in a contactless and faceless manner would go a long way in saving critical time of citizens while easing their compliance burden. Consequently, the footfall at the RTOs is likely to significantly reduce, which would lead to greater efficiency in their functioning,” the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways said in the circular release last week.
