We are living in the age of certificates and proofs. We need to submit at least 2 or 3 types of documents for any service. It is always difficult to carry required certificates and save them carefully. The efforts of AP Government towards digitalisation of all certificates and launch of digilocker system is likely to solve this problem. The Government is developing Dhruva portal, an exclusive online service to store and avail all the certificates of students and citizens.
All Certificates at a Single Place:
With Dhruva portal, citizens and students can store their certificates like mark sheets, provisional certificates, caste and income certificates, driving license, local / nativity certificates, RC, ration cards, etc at a single place.
105 Types of Documents and Certificates:
These documents and certificates can be downloaded online by the officers concerned at the time of processing of your applications for various services. About 105 types of certificates and documents are going to be digitalised under Dhruva project.
Digi Locker System:
Every student will be given a digital locker on Dhruva portal. Students can save their documents in digilocker and retrieve them while applying for admissions and job opportunities. Students need to just give a link to the documents.
Pilot project:
Dhruva portal will be made available for the issue of certificates by 10th class and Intermediate boards, JNTU Kakinada, Krishna Univervisty initially. The services may be extended to other departments in later stages.
Dhruva stamp on certificates:
All the certificates will be in electronic format. Students need not carry any hard copies are zerox copies of certificates. Each student will get 10 MB digital space on Dhruva portal to store their documents. Dhruva stamp will be affixed on all the certificates after due verification by the authorities.
