Why the MY Bharat OTP Fails (The “Expert” Insight)
Server Congestion: High traffic during PM Internship deadlines.
DND Settings: Mobile operators blocking “Transactional SMS.”
Browser Cache: Stale data preventing the “Send OTP” script from firing.
5 Steps to Fix the “OTP Not Sent” Issue
Clear Browser Cache & Incognito Mode: Explain how “stale cookies” interfere with the portal’s session.
Check DND (Do Not Disturb) Settings: Instruct them to check if their service provider is blocking “Service-related SMS.”
The “Resend” Timer Rule: Tell them to wait exactly 180 seconds before clicking resend to avoid a “Request Limit Exceeded” block.
Network Refresh: Switch to Airplane mode and back to force a new signal tower connection.
Try the DigiLocker Alternative: (Pro Tip) If the standard OTP fails, suggest using the DigiLocker login path as a “Backdoor” to the portal.
