The process of getting a passport often becomes a challenging task for people. Many people are troubled due to long lines, frequent visits to the passport office and checking of necessary documents. But a new initiative in Uttar Pradesh has made this process easier. Mobile vans have been started in the state, which will provide the facility of making passports by visiting people’s homes in 13 districts. Under this facility, now people will not have to visit the office again and again for passport.

This mobile van has been flagged off by IFS officer Anuj Swaroop. This van will work in Ghaziabad and surrounding areas. Its main objective is to help people in the passport application process at home. Officials said that this initiative is being started by the Regional Passport Office of Ghaziabad.

Ghaziabad Regional Passport Office has decided to run this mobile van in 13 districts of western Uttar Pradesh. These districts include:

In the first phase, this service will be tested in Ghaziabad. If it is successful, it will be expanded to other districts as well.
How will the mobile van work?
The mobile van will provide passport services to the people coming in the area of Ghaziabad Regional Passport Office. Officials say that the mobile van will be given priority in the district where maximum applications come. If the demand for passports is low in a district, the vans will be sent to other districts.
What facilities will be there in the van?
There will be a complete team of passport makers in the mobile van. Apart from this, all the necessary equipment like computer, scanner, and printer will be available in the van.

There will be an announcement system in the van, so that people can get information on time. Along with this, people will also be informed about this service through social media platforms, so that they can easily get a passport.
Keep in mind while applying
Many people make mistakes in a hurry while applying for a passport. It is necessary to fill all the information correctly while applying in the mobile van. If any mistake is made, you may have to go to Ghaziabad again to correct it. Therefore, it is advisable to check all the documents and information carefully while applying.
