Sharda University uploads data of 29,000 graduates on digilocker

Talking about the upload of the remaining data, university officials said, the remaining data will be updated by June end.

Sharda University has become the first varsity in Gautam Budh Nagar to upload the academic data of its graduates on the Union government’s portal, i.e.  digilocker.gov.in. According to the reports, out of its 55,000 graduates, Sharda University has so far uploaded the data of 29,000. Talking about the upload of the remaining data, university officials said, the remaining data will be updated by June end. Ajit Kumar, spokesperson for Sharda University added, “In 10 years, some 55,000 students graduated from the university and among them, 17,000 were international students.”

“Through this system, we will be able to stop forgery and fake documentation activities. Employers will have an easy way to verify the details of students. This way we have made the academic legacy of Sharda safe,” he added. The University students will now be able to access their documents digitally hassle-free.

The Digi locker system has been launched by the Union government under its Digital India initiative with an aim to secure data of major institutions on the cloud. The government has asked all academics to put up the data of its graduates under the National Academic Depository (NAD) system. “Our team worked consistently for three months to achieve this. By June, we will be fully compliant. All university data is now going to be safely encrypted,” Kumar said. This is especially useful for students who need to access their academic records and transcripts for pursuing higher education,” he added.
