You don't need to go through all the hassle unless you want your KYC data changed into anything else than Aadhaar.

I feel govt. itself confused whether to force aadhaar or keep it as only an option.

Fake/Duplicate sim registration were totally stopped due to that aadhar authentication process before buying a New Sim.
But If old days come back again, like Voter card or Pan Card is enough for new sim activation then again there will be lot more fake sim registration with the help of fake document , and due to that Crime will rise in our society .

Virtual Aadhar card number was good, why they stopped that?
Maybe it is too complicated for common public.

Telcos have stopped Aadhaar authentications as of November 20: UIDAI CEO

Many entities are still insisting on Aadhaar. Is there a possible grievance redressal?

We haven’t made it mandatory. Either the person making it mandatory should be responsible or the regulator who is regulating the sector.

What do you think will happen to the Aadhaar ecosystem that was being used by industries such as Fintech?

The offline verification is a viable option. It gives you the same level of identity confirmation and same level of assurance. It is only a question of switching from authentication to offline verification.
