Aadhaar Card New Rule 2025 – Aadhaar is no longer just an identity card, but it has now become your digital identity.

- Giving Masked Aadhaar will be considered wrong
- Penalty for sharing Aadhaar through unauthorized website or app
- Direct penalty for misusing someone else's information
How to avoid penalty? Adopt these easy methods
Under the new rules, UIDAI has made it clear that if a citizen is negligent, he may be fined ₹ 10,000 to ₹ 25,000. But if you keep the following things in mind, you can avoid any such financial loss.
- Keep your Aadhaar updated: If the address, mobile number or other information has changed, then go to the nearest Aadhaar service center and get it updated.
- Use Masked Aadhaar: Share only the last 4 digits where you can see. It is more secure.
- Do not share OTP with anyone: Be it bank, KYC or any other service, OTP should be used only by you.
- Use Aadhaar only on official website or portal: Avoid fake or suspicious apps.
- Keep your mobile and email linked: So that you can get updates of every activity immediately.
- Report any suspicious activity immediately: Through UIDAI's helpline or online portal.
New technologies are coming to protect Aadhaar
- UIDAI has implemented some advanced technologies to keep Aadhaar data completely safe:
- Encryption of biometric data: Now your finger and eye scans will be kept in high security.
- Blockchain technology: Every access will be tracked so that the data cannot be tampered with.
- Multi factor authentication: Only password will not work, OTP and fingerprint will also be necessary.
- AI based monitoring: If any suspicious activity occurs, you will get an immediate alert.
What is Masked Aadhaar and how to use it?
Masked Aadhaar is an Aadhaar in which only the last four digits are visible and the rest of the information is hidden. This is necessary when you have to identify yourself to a third party but do not want to share the entire Aadhaar number.
