State departments to preserve soft copies of certificates in digital locker
The various departments of the state government have been instructed to store soft copies of every important certificate issued to individuals in a public database under digital locker. This will allow the concerned authority or the individual to download the document when necessary in a hassle free manner. The Principal Secretaries and Secretaries of all departments were directed by Chief Secretary Aditya Prasad Padhi to issue certificates having long period of validity like education, caste, birth, death and nativity. They were also advised to conduct random checks of the actual service delivery on the field.
