Dr. Tamilisai Soundararajan, the Hon’ble Lieutenant Governor of Puducherry, inaugurated the Unified Data Hub (UDH), developed by the National Informatics Centre (NIC) Puducherry. UDH serves as a comprehensive system, consolidating data from 23 departments and 140 welfare schemes, providing extensive insights into beneficiary profiles.
This centralized repository efficiently manages beneficiary details from various departments and schemes, ensuring regular updates on Birth and Death Registrations from Local Bodies. UDH aids welfare departments in identifying eligible beneficiaries, employing features like deduplication, validation, cross-referencing, integration with Aadhaar Data Vault, and birth/death notifications. Shri S Rajasekaran, SIO Puducherry, emphasized UDH’s impact and highlighted its features and facilities for Welfare Departments. He stressed the integration of Web API services, BlockChain Technology, and Digilocker for streamlined verification. Additionally, Shri Arulraj Sr., Director (IT), outlined UDH’s Phase I and II features, explaining the portal’s data life cycle during beneficiary updates.
UDH plays a crucial role in collecting incremental data for welfare scheme beneficiaries, accumulating necessary details for de-duplication and cross-referencing purposes, ensuring accurate and efficient governance.
