“Facility of digital locker has been introduced to concretise concept of paperless governance. Through this facility, space will be available to every citizen on government cloud,” an official release said today.

“In it, one can safely store his scanned or digitalised copies of important documents including academic certificates, driving licence, passport etc. To avail this facility, one should register him/herself with the help of his Aadhaar number on www.digitallocker.gov.in or www.digilocker.gov.in,” it said.
