Is Aadhaar card mandatory for all?

Q: I have not yet got my Aadhaar card, but nowadays we have been hearing a lot of things that Aadhaar is compulsory for gas, for railway reservation, and for many other schemes, etc. What about people who don't have one?

Aadhaar card is a unique number and it is valid throughout the country. Aadhaar number may be used as a proof of address in near future. All service providers are now demanding Aadhaar number because details of a person is incorporated in it.

Aadhaar card has not been made mandatory but if you have aadhaar card then you can avail some benefits like LPG subsidy will be linked to your Aadhar card, the Aadhar card is mandatory for college and university students who want to get scholarship or fellowship from either University Grant Commission (UGC) or the state government.
