The DigiLocker Service in now in Beta and is a powerful tool that can be used to store your precious documents online.
The DigiLocker Service is an online portal which you can use with the help of your Aadhaar card to store a soft copy of your important documents in a secure location. This can be a real lifesaver in many cases.You can save an e-copy of your important documents like Voter ID, Birth Certificate, PAN Card, Ration Card etc all in one place.
This service will be implemented with government portals so that you can easily go through various processes without the hassle of uploading your documents again and again. All you would have to do is link them to you DigiLocker and they will only be given permission to access the document required.
For example, your Voter ID card is required as a proof for some online process. You will only need to give the DigiLocker link and will not have to upload the scanned copy of the Voter ID.
The service is linked to your Aadhaar Card no. so it will be accessible only by you, which makes an added security bonus
