The Passport Seva Project was launched by the Ministry of External Affairs with the objective of delivering Passport Services to the citizens in a comfortable environment with wider accessibility and reliability. The project envisages setting up of 77 Passport Seva Kendras (PSKs) across the country, a Data Centre and Disaster Recovery Centre, Call centre operating 18x7 in 17 languages, and a centralized nationwide computerized system for issuance of passports. The entire operation will function in a “less paper” environment with an attempt being made to deliver passports within 3 working days to categories not requiring police verification.
