Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has brought up an idea to validate the digital vehicle RC and driving licence through the DigiLocker app. Now, people will get rid of carrying the physical documents of their vehicle every time while riding or driving. The digital form of the original driving licence and the vehicle RC can be easily viewed over the smartphone.
The DigiLocker Android application verifies the user’s phone number through an OTP, making it more secure. After connecting the app, the user simply needs to fill in Aadhar card details and upload their scanned document in e-document format. The Traffic Police can easily view the documents over the phone and won’t apply any penalty on the vehicle driver.
The data on the app is encrypted and safely saved over cloud storage space. An official government statement read “besides being convenient for people, this will also result in assured authenticity of such documents and reduction of administrative overhead.” Once implemented, the motorists and vehicle owners won’t have to carry the original document with them.
