Rajasthan Mines Go Paperless: Digital Leap By December 15

The Rajasthan government is poised to implement a comprehensive paperless system for all mining-related activities, with a full transition set for December 15. The Mines, Geology, and Petroleum Department will cease all offline operations, mandating exclusive use of online platforms for officials. This initiative is supported by newly developed tools, including two mobile applications and 14 online modules covering critical functions such as e-payments and contractor registration.

The digital transformation is designed to foster greater transparency within the mining sector. By eliminating manual processes, the government aims to drastically reduce administrative delays and minimize the need for physical visits to offices. This will also ease the burden on field officers, allowing them to operate more efficiently.

Officials are undergoing orientation workshops to ensure a smooth adoption of the new digital framework. Monitoring of compliance with the new online procedures will begin on December 1, with full digital implementation anticipated by mid-December. The department is committed to ensuring all personnel are proficient in using the new, user-friendly online services.
