After making Aadhaar number mandatory for filing of Income Tax returns, the government is soon going to make it compulsory for obtaining SIM cards too, media reports say.
A report in the Aaj Tak said that the Department of Telecom has sent a notice to telecom companies asking them to ensure that the SIM card of the mobile subscribesrs is linked to his/her Aadhaar card.
The DoT has asked the telecom operators to complete the process within a year, the media report said.
What happens to the existing customers?
All the existing customers will have to be re-verified by the telecom companies. Both pre-paid and post-paid users will have to fill in the re-verification under Aadhar card E-KYC process.
How will the verification be done?
The customers will be verified through SMSes. Telecom companies will send verification codes to its customers.
