<h1>National ID authority directs schools to run mandatory Aadhaar biometric update camps for children aged five to fifteen</h1> A national identity authority has directed schools to facilitate mandatory biometric Aadhaar updates for children aged five and 15, urging state and UT administrations to organise school-based camps to complete pending updates. The authority partnered with the education department to provide Mandatory Biometric Update (MBU) status via the UDISE+ system so schools can identify students with unresolved MBUs. Nearly 170 million Aadhaar numbers reportedly require updates; failure to update may impede authentication for government benefits and registration in competitive and university examinations. The authority seeks targeted state support to complete the MBU drive.
