Aadhaar biometrics have helped reunite two individuals with their families after long separations. Rudraksh Rastogi, a 17-year-old with a speech impairment, was found five years after going missing during protests in Bareilly. His biometric data revealed his identity and allowed authorities to contact his parents. They had searched for him nationwide, nearly losing hope before this breakthrough. In another case, Mahadaya Budala, a 66-year-old man with a mental disability, was reunited with his family after six months. He was found on a highway in Varanasi, and Aadhaar helped connect him to his son.
