Correct answer: (d) Neither 1 nor 2
Explanation
- A
1 only
(a) 1 only. Aadhaar is a proof of identity, not of citizenship or domicile. UIDAI and the Aadhaar Act are explicit on this. Statement 1 is false, so this letter is not the key.
- B
2 only
(b) 2 only. An Aadhaar number can be deactivated or omitted by UIDAI (death, duplicate, misuse, court order). Statement 2 is false, so this is not the key.
- C
Both 1 and 2
(c) Both 1 and 2. Both statements fail, so both-correct is not the key.
- D
Neither 1 nor 2
(d) Neither 1 nor 2. (d) Official key: Aadhaar is not citizenship or domicile proof, and the issuing authority can deactivate a number. Neither statement is correct.
Summary. Official key is (d) neither 1 nor 2. Aadhaar authenticates identity; it does not confer citizenship or domicile. UIDAI may deactivate or omit a number. Honour the stored letter (d).
