Digilocker - A Gov. Of India Initiative For Digital India

[+AnimeshAshu]

DigiLocker is a service launched by Government Of India to provide a secure dedicated personal electronic space for storing the documents of resident Indian citizens. The storage space (maximum 1GB) is linked to the Aadhar number of the user. The space can be utilized for storing personal documents like University certificates, PAN Cards, Voter id cards, etc., and the URI's of the e-documents issued by various issuer departments. There is also an associated facility for e-signing documents. The service is intended to minimize the use of physical documents and to provide authenticity of the e-documents. It will also provide secure access to Govt. issued documents. It is also intended to reduce administrative expenses of Govt. departments and agencies and to make it easy for the residents to receive services.

DigiLocker is one of the key initiatives under the Digital India Programme. This is released by the Department of Electronics and Information Technology (DeitY), Govt. of India. 

The idea is that this should minimise the need for physical documents; if your birth and education certificates are online, and you apply for a Passport, then the Passport Office could use your Aadhaar number to request the DIGILocker for your details, without needing you to carry a large file of documents for the application.

Or, the RTO could issue your Driver's License directly to your DIGILocker, based on your Aadhaar information alone; this way, if you need to send your new license to any agency as verification, you'll have an online, authenticated version available whenever you need it.

 

The following are the objectives of the DigiLocker system.

• Enable digital empowerment of residents by providing them with Digital Locker on the cloud
• Enable e-Signing of documents and make them available electronically and online Minimize the use of physical documents
• Ensure authenticity of the e-documents and thereby eliminate usage of fake documents
• Secure access to Govt. issued documents through a web portal and mobile application for residents
• Reduce administrative overhead of Govt. departments and agencies and make it easy for the residents to receive services
• Anytime, anywhere access to the documents by the resident
• Open and interoperable standards based architecture to support a well-structured standard document format to support easy sharing of documents across departments and agencies
• Ensure privacy and authorized access to residents' data. 

 

 

 

So Just Enroll it here Friends and join the Digital India - https://digitallocker.gov.in/

 

To sign up, you need only enter your Aadhaar number, and an SMS is set out to the mobile phone number you registered at the enrolment camp. This one-time-password is the only way to get inside your DIGILocker for the first time, but afterwards, you can set your own password or link the DIGILocker to your Google or Facebook login.
