Check Aadhaar Card Status Online!

Applied for an Aadhaar card but still haven't received it? You can easily check the status of your application online. All you need is a copy of the acknowledgement slip that you are given after your visit to the enrolment centre. If you have that, then this is an easy process.

An Aadhaar card is an official government-issued identity card for Indians. Many government institutions accept this card as a proof of identity and some require that you produce your Aadhaar card. The card is issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) on behalf of the government. It's steadily being linked to a growing number of government functions, and continues to grow in importance, so it's probably a good idea to get an Aadhaar card, even if you don't necessarily need one yet.

Follow these steps to check the status of your Aadhaar card application online.

Head to the Aadhaar status page on the UIDAI website.
Check your Aadhaar acknowledgement slip. At the top you will see the 14-digit enrolment number and a 14-digit date and time of enrolment.
Key in these two numbers in the EID and Date/ Time fields respectively.
Type the captcha in the field labelled Enter the Security Code.
Click Check Status.

This will reveal the status of your Aadhaar enrolment application. This is only for checking the status of a new application. If you have misplaced your card, and want to print out a copy that you can use, then Read Our Article How to Download New Aadhar Card.

How to Download a Copy of Your Aadhaar Card

If you've misplaced your Aadhaar card, don't panic because you can easily download a fresh copy. It needs you to know your Aadhaar number, but you can easily look that up online.

The unique 12-digit government identification is not compulsory to have, but it serves as an identity proof on most forms that you'll fill, and some government agencies also require the Aadhaar these days. It is issued by the Unique Identification Authority of India on behalf of the Indian government.

The good thing about Aadhaar is that unlike some other identity cards, its digital copy, downloaded from the UIDAI website, is as valid as the original card. So whether you've misplaced your card and need a new one, or just wanted to get a digital copy of the card to submit with a form online, the official website has you covered.

Enrolling for Aadhaar is free and so is the process to obtain a digital duplicate; just follow the steps below and you're done.

Getting your UID number

To download a copy of the Aadhaar card, you need to know your UID number or your Enrolment ID. If you've gotten your Aadhaar already, then it's generally a good idea to note down the number somewhere. If you've misplaced the Aadhaar, then look for the enrolment form to check your Enrolment ID. In case you don't have either, then you need to look this number up first. Here's what you need to do:

Go to the UIDAI website.
Make sure that Aadhaar No (UID) is selected from the two options near the top of the screen.
Type in your full name, as printed on the Aadhaar card.
Type either the email address or phone number that you used to register for Aadhaar.
Enter the characters you see in the image above Enter the Security Code.
Click Get OTP.
A one-time password will be sent to your email address or phone number, whichever you entered in the form. Enter this password in the form next to Enter OTP.
Click Verify OTP.
Now you'll receive your Aadhaar number on via SMS or email.

Getting your Aadhaar card
Once you have the UID number, you can use it to download a copy of your Aadhaar card. This part is also simple:
Head to the e-Aadhaar page on the UIDAI website.
Select Aadhaar next to I have.
Enter your Aadhaar number, full name and the PIN code of your residential address.
Key in the characters in the image in the field Enter above Image Text.
Click Get One Time Password.
This one-time password will be sent to your phone number if you click Confirm in the pop-up. Alternatively, you may click Cancel and have it sent to your email address.
Enter the password you received into the form next to Enter OTP.
Click Validate & Download.

Now your Aadhaar card will be downloaded in a password-protected PDF file. The password is the simply the PIN code of your residential address. You can now print this file, and it is a fully valid Aadhaar card. Let us know if this tutorial helped via the comments. For more tutorials, head to our How To section.

Find Govt. Employee Attendance Online!

Announced just a few weeks ago, the Indian government's new online biometric attendance system is now online, with nearly 50,000 employees attendance across 147 government organizations (at the time of writing) including the Cabinet Secretariat, and other government bodies like the Central Vigilance Commission and the Planning Commission.

On the website the attendance of employees can be tracked online - this serves as a centralized management system for the government, but it should also increase transparency as anyone can access the site for a broad overview.

On the site, you can see the attendance activity over time, the number of registered employees and the number of employees present today. You can even see the number of active devices, and clicking on any of these tabs takes you to a spreadsheet where you can see a breakdown of the information.

In this way, for example, you can see that the Ministry of External Affairs has 195 devices, and at the time of writing, 159 are active. You can see that eight out of 34 bio metric terminals are currently inactive, and that 1,358 MEA employees have marked their attendance today. Click the detail button on the right, and you can see the breakup between the Jawaharlal Nehru Bhawan, South Block and Patiala House offices of the MEA. Clicking detail on this page shows you the device ID, the type of device (tablet or desktop) and even which gate the employee entered the building from.

Further details include the name of the employee, designation, division and the exact time the employee arrived for duty. You can even use the search function on the dashboard to find an individual employee - and his or her email id. That's an incredibly detailed system, and you can use the export button to download the data on your screen to an Excel sheet as well.

The website shows a dashboard you can track this information, but this goes beyond just transparency. Government employees will be able to mark their attendance at any Central Office, which is also useful for tracking movement. This is done using biometric reading devices in the offices, and uses the Aadhaar to verify the data. Each government organisation has to enrol itself for the system to work, and on the dashboard, you can see that of the 49,141 employees registered so far, 32,487 have been verified.

As noted in the FAQ section of the website, the system relies on network connectivity at all times, and for this reason, the government will be ensuring Wi-Fi connectivity on NICNET, and SIM-based connectivity for employees using tablets.

How to Submit PAN Card Application Online

Our government has never been more digitally savvy than it is today, and that means that there are many important government functions that can be carried out online. A month ago, the government even launched a website to let all of us track the attendance of central government employees, and to see if they were arriving to work on time. With so many government services going digital, we believe that it's important that our readers also know what can be done online, and how.

To start with, we're taking you through the process of applying for a PAN card. In India, most important financial transactions require you to have a PAN card - it is used when opening a bank account, filing tax returns, or for financial transactions above Rs. 50,000. Having one of these cards is pretty much essential if you're working and managing your own finances.

Applying for a PAN is simple, and you can fill the forms online, but you'll have to mail your documents to the Income Tax PAN services offices to finalise the process. Once you fill up the form on the site and send your papers, the application is processed and the card shipped directly to your residential address.

In case you get stuck and need more information, then the helpline number (18001801961) is a good resource - when we got stuck on some of the details of the application, we gave them a call and found the service extremely helpful.

Step one is to get copies of the different documents you need to submit on your application.

Documents Required

To submit the application, you need to upload several documents to the PAN Services Unit website. You will need to upload a proof of identity, address and date of birth, along with a scanned passport photograph. Start by making a scan of any one document per section, for each section below:

Bank certificate in original on letter head from the branch (along with name and stamp of the issuing officer) containing attested photograph and bank account number of the applicant

Post office passbook having address of the applicant

You can also use one of the following documents, if it is less than three months old:

Electricity bill
Landline telephone or broadband connection bill
Water bill
Consumer gas connection card or book or piped gas bill
Bank account statement
Depository account statement
Credit card statement

3. Proof of date of birth

A copy of any one of these documents should suffice as proof of date of birth:

Matriculation certificate
Passport
Driving licence
Domicile certificate issued by the government
Affidavit sworn before a magistrate stating the date of birth

4. Photographs

How to apply

Once you have scans of all these documents ready, simply do the following:

Go to this page on the NSDL website.
Scroll to the bottom and select Individual in the Apply for a new PAN Card drop down menu. Click on Select.

Dasha Avatar Is Theory Of Living Evolution In Real Sense Unbelievable!!

Modern Science claims that human beings evolved from monkeys but various religions preach that God created humans and sent them to the earth, but no doubtly, the Indian sages do not fail to surprise the modern generations as they actually explained Darwin’s theory of Evolution. Yes mark my words they explained the theory thousands of years before Christ leave alone Darwin, and it is a tell tale of almost every household of India and people speak of it without realising the essence it hides. The theory was explained by the sages using the ten incarnations or ‘Dasha Avatar’ of Lord Vishnu. A surprising and much documented aspect of the Dashavatara story is its connection with evolutionary theory. Evolutionary theory, when viewed from a certain perspective, neatly intersects with the ten incarnations. It is an extraordinary recording of the evolution of human life and advancement in human civilization. The Indian sages do not stop the theory at the evolution to man. They go a step ahead and also trace the evolution of society and culture. We can see the difference in character sketch of Lord Ram and Lord Krishna. We now deal each avatara one by one and also show its counterpart in Darwin’s theory.

Matsya Avatar (First Avatar) vs Fish (First Stage)

Indian Sages:- The first incarnation or avatar of Lord Vishnu was in the form of a fish and is known as Matsya Avatar.

Modern Science:- The species that primarily lived in water, this can be seen as the first stage of life. Examples are prehistoric fishes.

Kurma Avatar (Second Avatar) vs Tortoise (Second Stage)

Indian Sages:- Second avatar of Lord Vishnu is Kurma. Kurma is a Sanskrit word which means Tortoise, which is a reptile that walks on four legs. We all know that tortoise is a creature capable of living both on land & in water, which indicates the transition of life from water to land.

Modern Science:- Amphibians came into being and life moved from water to the land. Fish finally evolved out of water became reptiles. Examples are tortoise, turtles.

Varaha Avatar (Third Avatar) vs Boar (Third Stage)

Indian Sages:- The Varaha Avatar, in the form of a wild boar, portrays the birth of mammal. The question arises, why Boar? Why not a deer or monkey or some other mammal? The reason is that Boar belongs the Suina family who are maxillary (teeth are in front) and therefore they do not have to swallow and regurgitate their food just like us humans! It’s extremely delighting to note that Indians had such a very insightful knowhow thousands of years ago!

Modern Science:- Reptiles evolved into the animals that could bear children and lived only on the land. Boar, the complete animal had adapted to live on land is seen in this stage.

Narasimha Avatar (Fourth Avatar) vs Half apes (Fourth Stage)

Indian Sages:- Narasimha Avatar indicates the transformation from animal to human form. I will like to draw your attention to the fact that Narasimha has the upper body of a lion but lower body of a man, it is important because this directly relates to the idea of a pre-human without a well developed brain but with the partial ability to become bipedal (walk on two legs). This may be the extinct initial human ancestor, someone who could be the missing link between apes and humans.

Modern Science:- Finally primates were evolving into Hominid forms that looked more like humans, were partially bipedal but their brains were still not developed. They can be seen as having partly human lower body and animal like upper body.

Vamana Avatar (Fifth Avatar) vs Dwarf man (Fifth Stage)

Indian Sages:- Vamana Avatar represents a being that is very close to humans but is extremely short. It indicates the complete transition into human form, and the beginning of intelligence in humans.

Modern Science:- Transformation from ape to human started and they developed intelligence. Finally Hominidae evolved to Homo erectus. They were bipedal and more human looking but dwarf.

Parashurama Avatar (Sixth Avatar) vs Forest Dweller (Sixth Stage)

Indian Sages:- Sixth Avatar was a forest dweller called Parasurama, who has weapons such as axe for survival. This is the first avatar of Vishnu that has no animal characteristics and wields an Axe. So basically, Parashuarama is what the current day human would be who could also use tools.

Modern Science:- Homo erectus evolved into Homo sapiens who could use tools. Homo sapiens are the present day human and biological evolution ends and at this stage the human might have a wavering mind, uncontrollable and act without reasons.

Ram (Seventh Avatar) vs Hunter (Seventh Stage)

Indian Sages:- The seventh incarnation Ram, who is well known among Hindus and is worshipped in temples as a deity. He was civilized and had more superior weapons like the bow and arrows. He is very vigilant and protects his villages and people. Rama was a very moral man, and was very obedient to his parents. This shows the psychology and simplicity of early human beings.

Modern Science:- At this stage the humans developed to be perfect homo sapiens and started giving importance to penance than the pleasure and started respecting other humans. The survival of the fittest started here and this led to mutinies between mankind. This was the beginning of the humans as we know now.

Balarama Avatar (Eighth Avatar) vs Farmer (Eighth Stage)

Indian Sages:- The eight incarnation Lord Balarama, is portrayed with the plough which marks the beginning of full-fledged cultivation. Human civilization had developed agriculture and was no longer depended on meat and forest for food.

Modern Science:- People began planting seeds and covering the countryside with food producing plants. The earliest and most successful crops were grasses with large seeds such as barley, wheat, and rice.

Krishna Avatar (Ninth Avatar) vs The modern culture man (Ninth Stage)

Indian Sages:- Krishna is another popular deity, and is a clear representation of advanced human civilization. Recent excavations of Dwarka city confirm the well planned construction of cities, towns and streets. They also show the change of culture.

Modern Science:- Mankind never looked back since they learned to use tools. The Homo Neanderthalensis were eliminated. Civilizations were formed, wars were fought, kingdoms were born and finally the world evolved to what we see it today. The chief characteristic here is the increasing complexity of life and society. The perfect human with cleverness and ability to think and win developed at this stage.

Kalki Avatar (Tenth Avatar) vs End of the world (Tenth Stage)

Indian Sages:- The last form is the final life form where the sages surpass the modern theory of evolution, and predict the future. Point to keep in mind is that we are looking at all the life forms that dominated planet earth since millions of years, so the question is what would the final dominant species look like? According to mythology tenth Avatar, called Kalki is yet to happen and when this occurs when the whole life on earth will move towards its end. He would be here to restart the whole cycle, so that it starts again. Species will be disappearing and the world will come to an end after which it will again start from stage first.

Modern Science:- According to Big Bang theory and other Modern theories the universe is not stable. The life in the world should end at one point and the creation will start from the beginning again. This whole loop continues infinite times.

Other Theories/Lists

Various versions of the list of Vishnu’s Avatars exist. The original Vishnu Purana talks of about 24 avatars of Vishnu. Some lists give Balarama as the eighth avatar and Krishna as the ninth. While other give Krishna as the eighth avatar and the Buddha as the ninth avatar. However modern day philosophers and sculptors have completely removed the Balarama (Farmer) avatar and inserted Buddha avatar. But here is an interesting fact accompanied with the video.

It is a pillar at Rayar Gopuram in Mahabalipurum which show Balarama before Rama. According to legends entire structure was left unfinished because a sculptor made a simple mistake in carving this pillar and carved the hunter (Rama) after the farmer (Balarama). This does hold in accordance with the theory of evolution and makes the entire carving pointless. However, to the so called primitive people who lived thousands of years ago with so called no knowledge of evolution, such a mistake was unacceptable and they completely abandoned the entire structure. Below is a video to support this point. You can watch it directly on YouTube.

View of famous historians

Monier Monier-Williams

“Indeed, the Hindus were, Darwinians centuries before the birth of Darwin, and evolutionists centuries before the doctrine of evolution had been accepted by the Huxleys of our time, and before any word like evolution existed in any language of the world.”

J. B. S. Haldane

“Dashavatara gave a ‘rough idea’ of vertebrate evolution: a fish, a tortoise, a boar, a man-lion, a dwarf and then four men (Kalki is not yet born).”
