Phased rollout of face authentication from Sept 15: UIDAI
UIDAI has announced a phased rollout of face recognition feature as an additional authentication mode, starting with telecom operators from September 15. Matching 'live face photo' with eKYC photo will be essential in cases where Aadhaar is used for issuing SIMs. UIDAI had earlier planned to roll out the feature from July 1, a target later pushed to August 1.n
