To simplify the process of issuing e-passes for essential goods and service providers during lockdown, eGov foundation has launched COVID e-Pass system. The platform is expected to reduce the operational burden of government officials and help in ensuring a seamless supply of essential goods and services during the lockdown.The COVID e-Pass system is a trust-based application where the state nodal officers must approve one-time registration requests from the compes along with setting the daily quota of passes for each company.The designated authority from the company is then allowed to generate bulk passes for company employees/partners, within the set quota, on their own without having to reach out to the district administration for inter-city movement. The pass is delivered to the applicant in pdf and SMS with an instruction to carry a valid photo ID. State Nodal Officers will work with police authorities for verification and validation of the e-Pass during the commute.This easy to use and intelligent system has already been up and running in Delhi, Haryana, Telangana, Odisha, Punjab, Puducherry and KarnatakaState nodal officer for Karnataka, Kapil Mohan (IAS), Principal Secretary Infrastructure Development, expressed satisfaction with the working of the system and stated that the solution will provide relief to compes for inter-district and inter-state movement of personnel for managing nationwide supply chains.The e-Pass platform has also been integrated with Aarogya Setu, government's COVID-19 contact tracing app which has an estimated one million new users registering every hour, and a total of 70 million registrants. The first phase of this integration will allow the e-Pass system to poll Aarogya Setu to check the health indicator of the individuals before generating the ePass. The copy of the ePass is also deposited in the individual's Aarogya Setu app for easyaccess and verification."The creation of the National e-Pass platform in less than a week is a beautiful moment. Firstly, it mfests how digital infra like eGov's DIGIT platform can be leveraged to create highly contextual solutions at scale and speed. It also brings out the power of co-creation that foundations like ours are uniquely placed to catalyze - we collaborated with volunteers from iSpirit, Aragoya Setu team at MeitY, State Governments, AWS and Consumer products compes to build this solution," said Viraj Tyagi, CEO, eGov Foundation."And finally, this is a testament of the team that worked on this initiative - the team got together in an instant to respond to a real problem India faced. The team put the mission ahead of themselves and put in an extreme amount of hard work, while going through the same stresses of managing groceries, worrying about their loved ones," added Viraj Tyagi."Ensuring the availability and seamless supply of essential items across the nation, we are working with States and have developed a simple mechsm for them to issue the permits digitally with ease. Noting that the availability of essential goods take place through consumer product compes, orgzed retail stores and e-commerce compes, this platform will allow compes to generate digital passes for their employees and ensure smooth supply of daily use essentials, amidst this lockdown," stated Hiren Doshi, VP, eGov Foundation.This story is provided by PRNewswire. will not be responsible in any way for the content of this article.
