Final round of Aadhar enrolment underway in hill districts

IMPHAL | Oct 4

To intensify the Aadhar enroment drive in the state, the state home department has initiated a special drive particularly in the hill districts from October 3. The drive is to enrol individuals who have been left out in the previous campaign.

A release said the schedule of visit to villages has been notified to deputy commissioner concerned in consultation with local MLAs. The state government has already completed mandatory two rounds of visit to the villages, it said.

The release further said the current drive is an extra round planned by the state government to facilitate enrolment of remaining people. This will be the last round of visit to the villages, it added.

It appealed to the public to utilise this opportunity to get enrolled, adding that Aadhar enrolment is necessary for getting any benefits under the Central and state government schemes.

Further the release pointed out that people who fail to get enrolled will be deprived of the benefit of availing any government schemes. There will be no more village visit after the current final round and the left out persons have to approach the permanent enrolment centres in the office of the deputy commissioners at their own cost, it said.
