Hyderabad: Many people in Hyderabad are rushing to Aadhaar enrollment centers after the government made OTP authentication mandatory to avail ration from Fair Price Shops.
The process of biometric verification has been abolished from February 1.
According to a report in Hans India, Mohammed Zaheeruddin who runs a fair price shop (FPS) at Hassannagar, Rajendranagar said that the new authentication method is very difficult.
