“We are conducting awareness camps in educational institutions and other areas on Aadhar services”, he explained.
He said trained staff at the centres provided secure, fast and reliable services. “We are providing public facilities like an air-conditioning hall, comfortable seating, drinking water and wheelchair access, " he explained.
Suresh urged people to use Aadhaar services at the centres. He said a name was mandatory for enrolling newborn children and advised parents to decide on a name before the birth and bring the child for enrolment soon after.
He said parents were increasingly coming forward to enrol newborns to access various services.
