It is very important to keep your Aadhaar card locked in today's time because your Aadhaar can be misused at any time. This feature will work like a lock, which no outsider will be able to unlock or use. To lock the Aadhaar number, the cardholder will have to send an SMS by writing GETOTP to 1947.

After this, OTP will come on the holder's phone. After getting the OTP, you will have to write the LOCKUID Aadhaar number and send a message to 1947 again. Now after this, the number will be locked. You will have to get OTP by writing the GETOTP Aadhaar number from the registered mobile number. Let us tell you that the 1947 number will be used for this also.

After getting the 6-digit OTP, you will have to send a message after writing the UNLOCKUID Aadhaar number and OTP. After doing this, the Aadhaar number will be unlocked. After Aadhaar is locked, even hackers will not be able to do Aadhaar verification without your permission.
