Hello aspirant !
Aadhaar card is a unique one -time government-issued identity card that is assigned to all Indian residents.
Hence the old childhood photo does not change your identity as the age is mentioned clearly.
Hope this may help you.
Good luck.
Hello Aspirant,
Yes of course you can add your AADHAR card as your identity proof but note that you have to upload only AADHAR number written on your AADHAR card issued by UIDAI or if you have applied for AADHAR card then you can enter your enrolment number instead of AADHAR number. If you have childhood photo or old biometrics then also it will be valid.
