Passport applicants in Gujarat will no longer need to visit a police station for verification, according to a circular issued by the state police chief. The circular states that police will verify the applicant’s citizenship and criminal history through online records. In addition, police may conduct a home visit if necessary.

Previously, applicants had to visit a police station in person to provide fingerprints and other identification information. This could be a time-consuming and inconvenient process, especially for those who live in rural areas or have busy schedules.
