Update Your Mobile Number in the Aadhar Card easily using online appointments

To register your Aadhar Card on a mobile number, you have to verify it while you are in the first stage of the process. But still, if you are unable to put the correct number, you can update your mobile number at a later stage. This may be a little tough, but there are simpler methods. Let me make this first thing clear. You can't change the registered mobile number on Aadhar Card by yourself. For that, you will have to go to an Aadhaar Seva Kendra.

UIDAI discontinued online update to prevent misuse of information.
