Now 'M Aadhar App' Will Be Used By Railways To Identify Passengers During Travel

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Now, as per the guidelines issued by the Railway Board, passengers will be identified during travel using the "M Aadhar App" (mAadhaar Application).

The Railway Ministry directs ticket checking staff to authenticate passengers' Aadhaar IDs using the mAadhaar application for real-time verification. The initiative aims to prevent unauthorized stays and identity fraud by enabling QR code-based checks.

To prevent cases like unauthorized travel in trains on another passenger's ticket or using a fake Aadhaar card, it is necessary that the process of checking identity cards be strengthened technically.

The mAadhaar application, developed by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), is an effective tool in this direction.

The said application provides the facility of QR code-based identity verification so that the authenticity of the Aadhaar card can be verified quickly and reliably. The mAadhaar application will soon be made available on HHT devices as well, so that the misuse of reserved tickets and identity cards can be prevented and the real identity of the passengers can be ensured.
