The Aadhaar App reported only 5 lakh downloads in its first three months and primarily targeted government employees.\n2. The application facilitated about 28 lakh mobile-number updates and enabled consent-based identity sharing for residents.\nWhich of the statements given above is/are correct?
Explanation
Statement 1 is incorrect: as per MeitY, the new Aadhaar App crossed 2.1 crore downloads (not 5 lakh) in three months and was meant for all residents, not government employees alone. Statement 2 is correct: the app facilitated about 28 lakh mobile-number updates and consent-based identity sharing. Hence only Statement 2 is correct.
