Plea to make use of common service centres
Printing of plastic Aadhaar cards has gained momentum in the district with the commissioning of common service centres of Tamil Nadu Arasu Cable TV Corporation.
A total of 15,000 persons have benefited through these centres in the last four months.
Now, several basic services have been brought under e-service facility.
Inspecting distribution of plastic Aadhaar cards at an e-service centre at Nilakottai near here on Thursday, Collector T.N. Hariharan said that sufficient quantity of plain cards had been supplied to the common service centres to facilitate distribution for all applicants.
Those having Aadhaar number could walk in and print a plastic card at these centres. They must pay Rs.30 for a plastic Aadhaar card if they have already received the card.
Those who had enrolled but yet to receive the card would have to pay Rs.40.
The Collector appealed to the people to make use of service centre and avail all benefits extended by the government and also for obtaining certificates of income, community, nativity, deserted women and first generation graduate.
