Bharat Sanchar Nigam [BSNL] — linking aadhaar

Address:

Chennai, Tamil Nadu, 600017

Bsnl send sms to link aadhaar with the mobile number. They have very few centres in chennai.

My friend, old lady of 80+ went to a bsnl centre for linking aadhaar. She had obtained aadhaar card with eye scanning. The bsnl chennai does not have provision for eye scanner for linking aadhaar. Their tiny scanners do not recognise her finger print.

What is the alternate arrangement made by bsnl for linking aadhaar. Without such a arrangement, why do they demand linking and also issue threat of disconnection of the mobile connection.
