APAAR ID submission optional

This will give the school the choice to update the ID of the APAAR card of the student while submitting the LOC.

According to CBSE, giving the ID of APAAR is completely optional. This can be done by choosing the 'Validate APAAR ID' option after getting the consent for the same.

In case the student does not have an APAAR ID or does not want to submit it, this can be chosen. In case the ID is submitted, the name of the student should be matched with that of the ID.
