Tamil Nadu Allows Matrimony.com Aadhaar Authentication

Tamil Nadu notified on August 28, 2026 that Matrimony.com can voluntarily use Aadhaar authentication to verify users, aiming to prevent impersonation and matrimony fraud. The approval, published in the gazette on September 16, follows a 2025 rule change after the Supreme Court struck down private Aadhaar use in 2018. Matrimony.com must obtain consent and offer alternatives.
