SSC’s New Step Toward Transparent Exams, Aadhaar-Based Authentication to Begin

The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) has taken an important step to make its examination process more transparent and secure. Starting from May 2025, candidates appearing for SSC exams will have the option to use Aadhaar-based biometric authentication. This move is expected to bring more reliability to the registration and examination process.

SSC’s New Step Toward Transparent Exams

The Staff Service Commission announced that Aadhaar authentication will be available at different stages. Candidates can choose to use their Aadhaar while registering online for exams, while filling out the application form and also at the examination centers while appearing for the tests. This new feature is aimed at making the process smoother and more trustworthy.

Aadhaar Authentication Is Voluntary

The SSC has clearly stated that using Aadhaar-based authentication is completely voluntary. It is not mandatory for candidates to use Aadhaar but the option is being introduced to make the process easier and faster. The biometric authentication will help confirm the identity of candidates and reduce chances of impersonation or fraud. This step is part of the Commission’s larger goal of improving the overall examination system. With the help of Aadhaar, SSC aims to offer a fair and transparent environment to all applicants in the upcoming examinations.

New Feature Will Be Available From May 2025

Candidates who are planning to appear for SSC exams from May 2025 onwards will be able to use this new Aadhaar based system. The Commission is expected to provide clear instructions and updates on how to use the feature at different stages of the exam process. The SSC believes that this digital step will benefit lakhs of candidates by ensuring a more secure and efficient examination experience.
