New Delhi: Indian Railways has integrated DigiLocker, a flagship initiative under the Digital India program, with its hiring portal to expedite the recruitment process. This integration aims to significantly reduce the time frame for verifying documents during the recruitment of new employees.
With DigiLocker, candidates applying for railway jobs can now submit their essential documents such as educational certificates, identity proofs, and other required credentials directly from their DigiLocker account. This digital integration eliminates the need for physical document submission, reducing both the time and administrative burden associated with the verification process. The move is expected to enhance the efficiency of the recruitment process, ensuring quicker onboarding of candidates while maintaining the integrity and accuracy of the document verification procedure. By leveraging DigiLocker, Indian Railways continues to align with the government’s vision of a paperless, digital-first approach, further modernizing its recruitment framework.
This step is part of Indian Railways’ broader efforts to incorporate digital technologies into its operations, aiming to improve transparency, reduce delays, and streamline administrative processes.
