In a bid to curb the influx of illegal immigrants, the Assam government has decided to tighten Aadhaar-related controls across the state. Authorities are ramping up verification processes and restricting the issuance of Aadhaar cards to only those who can furnish valid legacy documents proving Indian citizenship. This move comes amid concerns over undocumented individuals acquiring Aadhaar through fraudulent means, potentially gaining access to government benefits and services. The state administration has instructed Aadhaar enrollment centers to follow stricter guidelines and ensure thorough background checks, particularly in border districts with a history of illegal migration.
