In 2024, there are significant updates and important notices regarding Aadhaar cards. Here are the key details:
1. **Mandatory Updates**: If your Aadhaar card was issued 10 years ago and has not been updated since, you are required to update your information to ensure it remains accurate and current.

You can update your address, name, date of birth, gender, mobile number, and email ID through the [UIDAI website](https://uidai.gov.in) or the mAadhaar app.
3. **Biometric Updates**: For children who have turned 5 and 15 years old, updating biometric details (fingerprints, iris scan, and photograph) is mandatory.
