If OTP is not arriving, there are still a few official methods to access your Aadhaar:
1. Use uidai Official Website
You can still try downloading via the official portal of the Unique Identification Authority of india (UIDAI):
- Check if your registered mobile number is active
- Retry OTP after a few minutes
- Ensure good network coverage
2. Use DigiLocker App

4. Visit Aadhaar Seva Kendra
If online methods fail, you can visit the nearest Aadhaar center for assistance and reprint services.
