New Delhi: Air Chief Marshal RKS Bhadauria launched an e-governance portal for the Indian Air Force (IAF) on Thursday in order to promote a paperless office, an official statement said.

The launch of e-governance in IAF marks a paradigm shift from the current method of correspondence, filing and documentation to a digital one, the statement said.

"The implementation undertaken as part of Digital India and e-governance initiative will transform the entire Indian Air Force to a ''paperless office'' workflow," it said.

"The platform would achieve enhanced transparency, improved efficiency, increased accountability, assured data integrity and rapidly accessible archives along with a major reduction in the use of paper," it added.

This project started in April and was to be completed by January 1, 2021, the statement said.

The e-governance or e-office application has been designed indigenously from scratch and customised to meet the filing system requirements of the IAF, it said.
