Kohima: Aadhaar operators and Common Service Centres (CSC) operators in Medziphema under Chumoukedima district have been cautioned from making changes to the address of displaced Kukis from Manipur taking shelter in Nagaland.
An order issued by the additional deputy commissioner of Medziphema, P James Swu, on Tuesday notified that some displaced Kukis from Manipur had approached CSC operators for change of address in the Aadhaar.
The administration directed all Aadhaar operators and CSCs operating in the sub-division to not entertain change of address in the aadhaar documents as it may lead to “future complications’.
“This order is issued for strict compliance,” it warned.
Copies of the order were also addressed to the chairman of the Kuki community in Medziphema town, and village council chairmans of Molvom, Maova, Sirhima, Khaibung, and Bungsang.
