Aadhar Enabled Payment System: The system of withdrawing money from Aadhaar at home is becoming quite popular in villages and rural areas, but there should not be any loophole in this system due to which scammers can take advantage of it. For this, the government can issue new guidelines for Aadhaar online payment.
