The Telangana Police have secured the top rank in passport verification efficiency across all Indian States, owing to their digital platform VeriFast. This recognition comes ahead of Passport Seva Divas on June 24, when Director General of Intelligence B. Shivadhar Reddy will receive the Certificate of Excellence in New Delhi from the Minister of External Affairs.

The VeriFast application was developed to streamline passport verification and has placed Telangana at the forefront of technological innovation in public service. The State consistently records the fastest average turnaround time (TAT) for verifications, often completing the process in under three working days, ahead of national requirements.
