Key Points

  • A total of one lakh e-mitras are operating in the state including 85 thousand e-mitras and 15 thousand e-mitras plus, whereas in the country this figure is 3 lakh. In this way, one-third of the e-mitras of the entire country are operated in Rajasthan.
  • Information and Technology Commissioner Ashish Gupta gave this information while addressing a state level workshop on 'Recent Initiatives to Simplify Aadhaar Usage' at Bhamashah Techno Hub, Jhalana Dungri.
  • He said that earlier in the state, the common man had to visit government offices to take advantage of government schemes or for other works, but in this era of digital revolution, now all the schemes of the government are available on mobile phones and digital service delivery has increased transparency in the system.
  • The most important role in service delivery is the authenticity of the data. In the state, this work is being done through Aadhar card or Jan Aadhar card. In the coming time, work is being done to make Aadhaar registration 100% in the state.
