Telecom-operators : Re-verify all mobile subscribers through Aadhar

All existing subscribers of mobile services will have to go for Aadhaar-based re-verification soon. A notification issued by the telecom department said, all telecom operators shall re-verify all existing mobile subscribers (pre-paid and postpaid) through Aadhaar-based eKYC process. 

Government instructed telecom operators to initiate the process regarding this. Cellular operators' body COAI said its members may meet next week to discuss the modalities of rolling out the verification process for the existing one billion-plus mobile phone users. 

The operator can re-verify more than one mobile connection in one service area through a single eKYC but not bulk connections. Verification of a subscriber would not be required in case of conversions - that is pre-paid to postpaid connections or vice versa.
