The government on Thursday launched DigiYatra which will provide a seamless entry and embarkation process for air passengers at the airports in the national capital, Bangalore and Varanasi.
After launching DigiYatra, which is based on facial recognition technology, at the airport in Delhi, Civil Aviation Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia said data shared by the passengers will be stored in an encrypted format and in a decentralised manner.
DigiYatra will be launched at four more airports — Hyderabad, Pune, Vijayawada and Kolkata — by March next year.
Later, DigiYatra will be rapidly rolled out across all other airports, Scindia said at a briefing in Delhi.
