The process for the current academic year for those who joined kindergarten and Class I is yet to commence. The officials have requested parents to keep all documents clear as the APAAR ID will be required for various academic-related works in the future. The data of every candidate's academic performance is accessed through it.
Officials from SSK said that the major hurdle in not achieving 100% registration is because Dakshina Kannada has a lot of migrants coming from north Karnataka.
There are also a few from other districts. "The Aadhaar card is primarily used to create the APAAR ID. However, the issue is that names and other credentials don't match each other. The spelling and address are wrong, which is a major complaint. As a result, the officials are unable to generate it.
Also, they must go to their native places to rectify it, where they visit once or twice a year," an official said.
A teacher from a govt school near Bokkapatna, that sees the highest number of admissions from north Karnataka, shared a similar concern.
"We have so far been able to complete 80% registration. The rest is pending due to a mismatch of Aadhaar details. The name we have entered in the Student Tracking System is not there on the card. There are multiple spelling mistakes in their names. If there is a single spelling mistake, the system fails to complete the process," the teacher said.
Govinda Madivala, DDPI, Dakshina Kannada, said that the APAAR ID, an initiative started across the country last academic year, enhances efficiency, removes duplicity, minimises fraud, facilitates student mobility, and enhances academic flexibility. Therefore, every parent should provide the right documents for the process. This ID functions as a permanent digital identity for the student in the education ecosystem.
"The ID will be integrated with entrance exams in the coming year," he said.

Over 2 lakh Indians gave up their citizenship in 2024, says govt data
Over two lakh Indians have surrendered their Indian citizenship in 2024, Minister of State for the external affairs ministry Kirti Vardhan Singh said on Thursday. While as many as 2,06,378 Indians renounced their citizenship last year, 2,16,219 gave it up in 2023. In 2022, the number stood at 2,25,620, in 2021, it was 1,63,370, in 2020, it was 85,256, and in 2019, the number of people to have given up their Indian citizenship was 1,44,017. For renouncing the Indian citizenship, an applicant has to apply online at the portal The concerned authority, the District Collector (in India) or Consular Officer (outside India) in Indian Mission/Post, as the case may be, verifies the original passport and other details. The concerned authority, after verifying all particulars mentioned in the declaration form submitted by the applicant, uploads all requisite documents for all stakeholder agencies/government departments to submit their inputs or remarks within 30 days. The concerned authority then approves the renunciation certificate in the online module after 30 days of acknowledgement after carrying out all necessary verifications of the documents. The process may take about 60 days from the date of uploading of signed hard copy of the declarant by the concerned Indian Mission/Post or concerned DM/DC office.

After you have given up your Indian citizenship, you would also have to surrender all the documents which you had acquired on the basis of your Indian citizenship (voter id, Aadhaar card, driving license etc.) to the concerned authorities. If a person denounces their Indian citizenship, every minor child of that person also automatically denounce their citizenship. However, such children may, within one year after attaining full age, can make a declaration that they wish to resume their Indian citizenship. You could renounce your Indian citizenship but then you'd become stateless, which is not desirable.
