  1. यह बिल्कुल झूँठ है कि आधार कार्ड के लिए पंजीकरण निःशुल्क है, आधार कार्ड पंजीयन में एक व्यक्ति को कम से कम 100 ₹ से 150₹ चुकाने पड़ते हैं आधार सेण्टर पर क्योंकि अब जनसेवा केन्द्रों पर यह सुविधा उपलब्ध नहीं रही जब जनसेवा केन्द्रों पर यह सुविधा थी तब यह काम 50₹ में ही होता था।दूसरे किसी भी नागरिक द्वारा ई आधार डाउनलोड करने की भी बात अब गलत है हर आदमी को इसे डाउनलोड करने की सुविधा अब कतई नहीं रही पहले होता था।..... धन्यवाद गलत खबर प्रसारित करने का।
