Voter ID and Aadhaar cards are essential documents for Indian citizens since they are used as proof of identity and address proof for various reasons. Though the Election Commission has not made linking Voter ID and Aadhaar cards mandatory, it is recommended since it establishes the identity of electors and authenticates entries in the electoral rolls.

There are several ways to link a Voter ID with an Aadhaar card, such as through a call, National Voter's Service Portal (NVSP), or SMS. Let’s look at how to check the Voter ID and Aadhaar link request status.
