The RBI has issued a notification enabling the use of eAadhaar obtained from UIDAI website as a valid form of eKYC. See their notification below:

This is a move in the right direction - eAadhaar is absolutely the right way to perform eKYC.
The RBI notification is a vindication of what we have said all along. An individual submitting his eAadhaar is better than having thousands of private entities collect people's biometrics and accessing information directly from UIDAI database.
