You have done a crime by representating a dead person as alive. Its called criminal intimidation.

Immediately inform the bank. If you can't move around then you can give poa to any of your relative who will represent you in your absence.

So risw, awake and remove this misrepresentation at once.

Firstly, no need to worry, whenever you are ok to go to the branch, go and made an application to the bank that you have mistakenly linked your deceased mother's aadhar number now you want to change it.

Secondly, update the mobile number also.

Lastly, and also mention in the same or file one more application requesting to delete your mom's part from your account, and also get the original and photocopy of her death certificate.

And time period will extend for sure to link don't worry

Good Luck...!

Can say it human error. go to bank and rectify, if ur mobile deactivated. Until Supreme court orders, its not compulsory to link with bank account.

Hi, since your mother is deceased you can intimate the branch manager and can detach her from the account .. There is nothing to worry , just visit the branch and provide your Aadhar details .. They will update it accordingly ..

You should immediately visit your bank personally or through someone to rectify the mistake

It has to be linked with your name before the deadline, though it is expected that deadline will be extended.

Do not worry :D

Get the Aadhar details of your late mother replaced with your's.

Approach the Branch to get the above done.

Send an authorised representative in case you are no in a position to attend this personally.

Just write a simple application to the concerned bank with your mistake mentioned in detail.

The Aadhar card of the mother should not be linked to the account as she is no more and you need to request the bank to transfer the account in your name only.

The phone no. in Aadhar account may be updated by visiting any Aadhar center and takes a week to update. You may link your no in the bank by visiting any branch of the bank or through online before the required date.

Replying to a plea filed by the Supreme Court, the Centre in a fresh affidavit also decided to extend the deadline for linking the 12-digit biometric Aadhaar with existing bank accounts till March 31, 2018.

The centre in the affidavit stated that until March 31, existing bank accounts will not be made non-operational for not linking with Aadhaar. It added for existing account holders, the deadline for Aadhaar based verification is being extended to March 31 and no coercive action will be taken till then,

Hi

Linking your Aadhaar card to the bank account I think should not have any effect on the operation of the locker.

Search on the bank website if you can find any option of submitting your details of mistake done by you via email or customer care toll free numbers.

Thank

No it will not be blocked.

Even if you are not well you can send someone to the bank with a letter describing this detail that you are not well and by mistake have registered mothers aadhar card.

Give a POA to someone to this thing on your behalf

Since the bank has asked you to link aadhar number to the account, you have linked the number of another joint account holder, though that person is no more living.

Well there is nothing wrong in it since there is no problem to link the number of joint account holder.

Let the bank come out with their objection after which you may take necessary steps to rectify the error.

hi i request you i am not well and i lost my mom ...we have joint account if i link my account after three months will my locker will be blocked ..and my bank accountbut if suppose i submit on febuaruary they will unblock my account...

important question ...if adhar card is not link....my locker will be blocked permanaentaly ...and if i recover then only i can submit please help me i am worried....all of u explain in detail step step by step....

Actually the bank need some aadhar number of either or the survivor.

Since you have already linked your mother's number, you need not be worried about linking yours so soon.

You can do it at the time of applying for any other facilities, if need be.
