Aadhar use in SBI Recruitment verification

 Aadhar use in SBI Recruitment verification

Central Recruitment & Promotion Department (CRPD) of State Bank of India (SBI) propose to introduce the scheme of verifying the identity of candidates applying for all its recruitment processes through Aadhaar cards w.e.f. 1st July 2017.

State Bank of India (SBI) has decided to use Aadhar Number to verify the identity of candidates in the recruitment process. Ascertaining the identities of candidates is critical for fair conduct of recruitment process and prevention of impersonation.  SBI proposes to verify the identity of the candidates through Aadhaar number in all its recruitment processes w.e.f. 1st July 2017.

Accordingly, while applying for appointment in SBI it will be mandatory to furnish the 12 digit Aadhaar No. (or 28 digit Aadhaar enrollment ID in case the Aadhaar has been applied for, but not received). The Aadhaar number will be used at discretion of SBI to match the bio metric information taken through bio metric attendance system at the time of the examination/ interview/ medical fitness test/ reporting for joining with that stored on the Aadhaar server to establish the identity of the candidate.

Jurisdiction of the Decision

The above provision is applicable in all States and Union Territories of India except the States of Jammu & Kashmir, Meghalaya and Assam. Applicants from these States may use voter ID, passport, driving license or any other valid document, as may be specified by SBI in the relevant recruitment notice, as proof of identity for future recruitment in SBI.

Benefit

In recent time, Government of India is trying to use Aadhar for verification of the right candidates in its various schemes and plannings. The use of Aadhar in SBI will correctly verify the candidates and the job seekers will be spared from providing so many papers. Earlier Railway also made Aadhar mandatory in all railway recruitment.
