Fantastic. Let us say all 1.2B of us have Aadhars.
Now suppose one fine morning you come across a person who does not have an Aadhar somewhere in the desert of Rajasthan. What do you do?
Ask him/her to get his/her Adhar done. This is the procedural part of the issue.
Or, a team of anthropologists discover a tribe of people living in the deep jungles of Chattisgarh. The tribe has a population of a few hundred. What do you do?
Get their Adhar done.
In a day perhaps 50,000 foreign nationals enter India -legally-. None of them have Aadhars. Do you plan to cover them? Remember, several of them would be in India as tourists or businessmen and would be in the country for only a week or so.
Foreign nationals have passports.
