Aadhar is slowly penetrating into each and every aspect of our identity. From buying a mobile sim card to getting an office space, from registering your child in school, to opening a bank account, everything needs an Aadhar number to be linked to.

Is it mandatory to link Aadhar with Driving License?


No, it is not mandatory to link Aadhar with Driving License. Although this is not mandatory as of now, but it may become mandatory in near future. The government feels that this will lead to removing any duplication of Driving Licenses. Most of the new applicants for new Driving Licenses, submit Aadhar Card either as proof of address of proof of identity. That way Aadhar gets linked automatically with new Driving Licenses.

There is a generic guideline to states to begin linking old Driving Licenses with Aadhar.
