The New Delhi Municipal Corporation (NDMC) is planning to create a blockchain-based infrastructure for its report administration system (RMS) and can subsequently emigrate its current birth-death certificates and property tax database to this infrastructure.
The National Capital Territory of Delhi (NCT) includes three native bodies — the Municipal Corporation of Delhi, NDMC, and Cantonment Board. While MCD includes roughly 96 percent of the realm and inhabitants of Delhi, the NDMC consists of solely three percent of the inhabitants.
NDMC space includes the realm that’s thought to be the seat of central authority in India. It includes buildings similar to Rashtrapati Bhawan, Parliament House. The Indian authorities own about 80% of the buildings within the NDMC space.
“IT Department (of NDMC) is intending to migrate all record-related database in blockchain technology and to implement/develop the blockchain-based database environment RMS for all application related to keeping records for prevention of tampering (sic),” the tender floated by the NDMC stated. The municipal authority stated that blockchain was being introduced to stop tampering with information.
“Blockchain technology would bring in more transparency in the entire process of issuing birth/death certificates. Since blockchain is immutable, it would be easier to detect cases of suspected tampering,” AW Ansari, Joint Director, NMDC informed MediaNama
