What is a Mask aadhar Card? How to download it?

It is a known fact that the aadhar card is essential for everyone in india and everyone is given a 12-digit aadhar card. But at the same time, the government has made some security arrangements to prevent anyone from misusing this aadhar card. To enhance the security of the aadhar card in that category, a facility called Masked aadhar Card has been introduced.
Although this feature was introduced a few years ago, many people still do not know about it, so let's look at it now. It is advised not to share the 12-digit integers on this aadhar card with any company as the aadhar card is essential for everything from SIM card purchases to bank account opening. Instead, the notice states that it is sufficient to register only the last 4 digits of the Aadhaar card. The unique identification authority of india (UIDAI) has posted the information on its social media site.
This mask is considered to be more secure as the Aadhaar card hides the first 8 digits and shows only the last four digits. Note that the first eight digits are replaced by codes such as XXXX XXXX and only the last four digits are visible on the outside. It is important to note that all of our personal information is protected by the use of this mask ID card.
