Police app to help you get character certificate for job
NEW DELHI: Delhi Police has made the character verification easier for people now. They have launched a web app where the verification of character and antecedents of candidates applying for government job or for employees working in the private firms could be easily done.
The web app was launched on Monday by BS Bassi, commissioner of police, at Delhi Police’s office of special branch at Asaf Ali Road. This is the second initiative by the special branch after they introduced online issuance of Police Clearance Certificates.
“The applicants will be provided digitally signed character verification reports (CVRs) and the verification will be issued in 30 working days,” said Garima Bhatnagar, joint commissioner of police (special branch).
The verification of character and antecedents of candidates for government jobs, semi-government jobs, public sector undertakings and other departments have been brought under the scheme of verification of Character and Antecedents by the ministry of personnel, public grievance and pension.
They also conduct the verification of employees working with private firms on the request of their employers after the prescribed fee is paid to the department.
“It will save three to five working days of any organization and expenditure to the tune of Rs 10 – 15 Lakhs. If this procedure is adopted by various departments a large number of manpower would be saved,” the senior police office said.
The applicants will be have to log on to the Delhi Police’s website and select the ‘Services’ option from where they can download the form. The form will go directly to the inspector zone, once the procedure is okayed from there it will go to the concerned district commissioner of police’s office. After verification from the DCP office a digitally signed CVR will be provided.
It will reduce the long queue outside offices and also applicants can fill multiple applications (upto 100) with a single click.
The special branch issues around 75,000-80,000 character verification reports annually which outlines usefulness of the App.
