Hyderabad: Students seeking admission into professional courses in Telangana state would have to produce Aadhaar card during counselling as the government has made Aadhaar mandatory from the next academic year. According to the sources, government is of the view that making Aadhaar number mandatory for admissions would check all sorts of irregularities in fee reimbursement, scholarships and fake admissions. Further, government has also decided to collect the Aadhaar numbers of teaching staff working in all professional colleges to weed out fake faculty and duplication in colleges.
