ITANAGAR, 5 Sep: The Kendriya Vidyalaya (KV) No 1 here, in coordination with the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI), organized an Aadhaar update camp for students on the school premises on Friday.

According to a release from the school, the first round of biometric updates, focusing on students of Class 9 to 12, has been completed, and students of the remaining classes will be covered in subsequent rounds under the supervision of the UIDAI’s regional office in Guwahati.
