New Delhi, Feb 17 (IANS) The Central government has launched the 'mPassport Police App' to fast track the passport verification process.
The move will not only streamline the passport verification process but will also help for timely updation and issuance of the passports as all verifications will take five days now.
The Ministry of External Affairs on Friday announced that it has introduced an 'mPassport Police App' to further streamline and expedite the passport issuance system.
"Police verification is an integral part of the passport issuance system. Various steps have been taken to streamline and expedite the process. To further expedite the process, the Ministry of External Affairs has introduced mPassport Police App," the Regional Passport Office in Delhi said.
On the occasion of Delhi Police Raising Day on Thursday, Union Home Minister Amit Shah dedicated 350 mobile tablets to personnel of the Delhi Police Special Branch.
This will result in the entire process of police verification and submission report digital and paperless.
Officials said that verification using tablets will reduce the verification time from 15 days to five days, effectively reducing the passport issuance timeline by 10 days.
The Regional Passport Office has said it was committed to efficient service delivery and 'Digital India'.
"His bag was searched by us and we recovered 18 gold biscuits weighing 2,100 gm worth Rs 1.3 crore from him. He failed to give any satisfactory answer to us. He also failed to produce any documents in this respect," said the customs official.
He said, "It is shocking that while the entire country has rejected these laws, Kejriwal typically quietly keeps them in force. One can well imagine what his true anti-farmer intent and agenda in Punjab is."
Pointing out that Punjab was never before divided on caste or religious lines, Capt Amarinder said "Charanjit Channi does not have the calibre of a chief minister," and his tall claims cannot fool the people of the state.
The Enforcement Directorate (ED) told the court that Honey was required to be questioned more. On the other hand, the counsel appearing for Honey opposed the prosecution's move, saying there was no need for more custodial remand.
The Police have nabbed an accused Sanjeev (22), a resident of Mahipalpur, Delhi and lab operator from the spot while Anuj Sharma was not found on the spot. Police have seized Rs 12,500, fake Covid reports, laptop, printer, a rubber stamp, mobile and other documents from the spot.
