WHAT TO DO?? I LOST MY ADHAR CARD.

Once you submit the aadhar enrollment application it takes 2-3 months time for its processing and 2-5 weeks after it dispatches from the Indian post.

If the duration has extended beyond that there are chances some errors might have occurred.

You can track back the delivery by knowing your enrollment number and enrollment date.

In case you haven’t received your aadhar card check the status on the eaadhar portal on the official website of uidai.
