Online portals ensuring transparency

The online portals launched by the government in Jammu and Kashmir aimed at easing the services to the people, has helped the administration in finding the flaws within the departments as well, thus proving productive for the administration within a short span of time. In one such instance, the government has been able to find the fake MBBS degree certificates of people, who are serving in different districts. The MBBS degree certificates of 12 “doctors” have been found to be fraudulent and factitious on the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) portal in Jammu and Kashmir. Such disclosure comes after the government started the process of verifying the certificates of doctors on the Hospital Professional Registry (HPR) portal of ABDM. The government as per the reports is in the process of scrutinising the degrees of these doctors. The degree of one of the doctors, who hails from Bandipora district, has been found fraudulent and factitious on Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) portal, while process is on to verify the degrees of 11 other doctors. It is the time when the mandatory steps have to be taken against the people, who have been serving fraudulently in Jammu and Kashmir and drawing salaries, thus giving a loss to the government exchequer by cheating. In this way, the online portals have been playing a role in ensuring transparency in Jammu and Kashmir and are all set to bring respite to the people in every aspect.
