Know about masked Aadhaar card
In addition, UIDAI has initiated the option of masked Aadhar to enhance Aadhar security. The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) also issues the masked Aadhaar card. It differs slightly from the standard Aadhaar card. It is also more reliable than that. The regular Aadhaar card displays a 12-digit Aadhaar number, while this card shows only the final 4 digits. The initial 8 digits of the Aadhaar number on the Aadhaar card appear as ‘XXXX-XXXX’ in the masked ID. Thus, the Aadhaar card holder’s number remains hidden from outsiders.
