Makkalai Thaedi app to provide key certificates
In a leap in e-governance key documents such as birth and death certificates can soon be downloaded from a proposed “citizen’s vault” using a mobile phone without the need to visit common service centers, Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami told the Assembly on Friday.

A Rs 90 crore scheme “Makkalai Thaedi Arasu” (Government in pursuit of people) would be implemented to facilitate access to the documents by dialling a dedicated “people’s number” created by the e-Governance Agency and getting a one-time password (OTP), he said.
Through the new system, “certificates and legal documents right from a person’s birth to death will be issued from the Citizens Vault,” Palaniswami said.
At present, people in need for such documents visited government offices, e-seva centers and applied through dedicated websites and mobile apps, he pointed out.
Through the new initiative, people can get documents without going through the application process, he said. The people’s number is expected to be made known later.
