The Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) operationalised a new state-of-the-art Aadhaar Seva Kendra (ASK) in Coimbatore, marking another step towards strengthening resident-centric services in the city. The new centre was inaugurated by a retired Superintendent of Customs (Senior Citizen) in the presence of the Director, UIDAI Regional Office Bengaluru, alongside other senior officials and representatives from M/s Protean eGov Technologies Limited, which will manage daily operations.
The Coimbatore ASK is equipped with eight operational kits to provide seamless enrolment, demographic and biometric updates, and grievance redressal under one roof. The centre is functional on all days except public holidays, ensuring greater accessibility and convenience. In addition to handling regular transactions, the ASK will directly receive grievances from cardholders for resolution through the Regional Office.
With this launch, UIDAI has operationalised seven ASKs in Tamil Nadu, with 23 more planned across various districts in the coming days. The new centre is designed to be fully inclusive and resident-friendly, featuring wheelchair access and accessible restrooms. Residents can also pre-book appointments online through the official UIDAI portal: https://bookappointment.uidai.gov.in/.
