People in Maharashtra are facing difficulties updating their Aadhaar information due to a shortage of functional kits at service centers. Many centers are non-operational, forcing residents to seek alternatives. The state government plans to deliver over 4,000 new Aadhaar kits to district offices starting February 10. Currently, only 175 out of 212 kits in Pune are working, with many others reported faulty. Officials have acknowledged the need for more kits to handle the increasing demand, especially in rural areas. The new kits will undergo mandatory testing before deployment.
