As on date, nine states
including Andhra Pradesh, Kerala, Delhi, Himachal Pradesh, have crossed 90
percent Aadhaar coverage, while sixteen states have Aadhaar coverage of over 70
percent. UIDAI is also conducting Aadhaar enrollments in the newly assigned
states of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Uttarakhand and Chhattisgarh, at a fast pace. These
four states with a combined population of about 34 crore, were added earlier
this year to UIDAI’s mandate by the government. Till date, Aadhaar numbers have
been issued to 8.93 crore residents in these states, which is 26% of the target
population.
Over 25,000 Aadhaar enrollment kits are operational across the country, including both camp mode and Permanent Enrollment Centres, with a total output of approximately 10 lakh enrollments per
day. UIDAI has already geared up its processing capabilities to achieve the
targets and has the capacity to process around 15 lakh enrollment packets every
day. Enrollments are expected to pick up further once the festival season is
over.
