Delhi Integrates Birth Certificates with DigiLocker for Enhanced Digital Governance
TAGS

In a significant advancement towards enhancing digital governance, the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) has integrated birth certificates with the DigiLocker platform. This initiative, part of the 'Digital India' mission and the '100 Days Viksit Delhi Programme,' aims to streamline access to essential documents for Delhi residents.

The integration allows Delhi residents to easily download their birth certificates from DigiLocker, eliminating the need for physical copies and visits to government offices. This will simplify processes such as school admissions, passport applications, and Aadhaar registration. This move is expected to not only benefit citizens by reducing the risk of document loss or tampering and speeding up various procedures but also lessen the administrative burden on municipal staff.
