summary
Nationwide enrollment infrastructure of roughly 200 registrars and thousands of local centers scales to cover a 1.2 billion population and has issued over 1 billion Aadhaar IDs; the system uses fingerprints, OTPs and even 2G‑capable terminals to perform hundreds of millions of authentications monthly and to link bank accounts for direct benefit transfer; rollout includes low‑cost micro‑ATM / bank‑mitra devices and anti‑duplication checks that claim to remove fake entries and trim DBT leakage, with extensive rural reach but ongoing challenges in biometric reliability and connectivity.
