Aadhaar card in Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati, Marathi, Kannada, Tamil: Here is how to update name and other details in 13 Indian languages

New Delhi: Aadhaar cardholders can update Aadhaar Card in multiple Indian languages such as Hindi/English, Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Odia, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, Urdu.

The UIDAI mentions, since a resident can enrol anywhere in India, it may happen that a native speaker of language "A" is enrolled by an operator of language "B" and consequently the resident’s local language of enrolment is "B". Later on the resident may want to change the local language of enrolment to another that he/she prefers. If such a situation or case arises, then all the demographic information that is printed on the Aadhaar letter will need to be updated in the new local language.

Currently the Aadhaar Letters are being printed in the following 13 languages: Hindi/English, Assamese, Bengali, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Marathi, Odia, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, Urdu.
