Paperless Boarding

Bengaluru International Airport on Thursday said it plans to roll out facial recognition facility for the passengers of some select airlines from early next year as it seeks to make the boarding process paperless.

Domestic air passengers could soon be enjoying a complete paperless boarding experience at airports as the government under a biometric-based 'digi-yatra' initiative will provide them a unique ID for hassle-free entry.

Imports will become easier from next year as the Central Board of Excise and Customs (CBEC) is planning to go paperless and move towards a completely integrated customs system for facilitating documentation and fast-tracking clearances of consignments.

Goa State Pollution Control Board (GSPCB) has become the first government department in the state to go 'paperless' with the introduction of e-office services from this week, a senior official said.

Rollout of an ambitious pilot project of the Income Tax Department to begin paperless and email-based communication with taxpayers has been delayed as many chosen tax offices have not sent the required data to the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) even after over a month-and-a-half of the go-ahead.

In a bid to move towards a paperless office, Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board (TNPCB) would soon be computerised to issue approvals for private industries in the state.
