Part of nationwide Aadhaar service expansion
The Ranchi centre is part of a broader initiative under which UIDAI has authorised Protean e-Gov to establish and operate Aadhaar Seva Kendras across multiple districts in India.
Under the plan, the company will set up Aadhaar Seva Kendras in 188 districts nationwide, strengthening last-mile delivery of identity services and improving convenience for citizens.
