Sports Ministry Tells NSFs To Issue Certificates To Athletes Only Through DigiLocker For Greater Transparency
National Sports Federations: With a view to bring more transparency and efficiency in issuing merit and participation certificates to sportspersons in the country, the Sports ministry has directed all National Sports Federations (NSFs) to embrace technological advancements by releasing the certificates through DigiLocker, a Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology initiative.
"From June 1 this year, only certificates issued by the Federations through Digilocker shall be valid and no physical certificates issued will be recognised for Government and other benefits. We have advised the Federations that their affiliated units must also start issuing the certificates through the DigiLocker from January 1 next year," said Sports minister Anurag Thakur.
Anurag Thakur also added that issuing sports certificates through DigiLocker will have many benefits, including access to and sharing of certificates, eliminating the need for physical copies, providing a secure environment for storing and verifying documents, ensuring their integrity and authenticity.
