To improve transparency and combat fraud, the government of Punjab has implemented a state-of-the-art automated system for issuing e-stamp documents.
Customers must link their registered mobile number to their Computerised National Identity Card (CNIC) in order to purchase e-stamp papers.
To ensure a secure transaction process, the system confirms the CNIC and delivers a message to the registered mobile number. An e-stamp paper will only be issued following a successful online verification process.
According to authorities, the system will never print stamp paper if a CNIC does not have a registered mobile number.
The government's dedication to stopping fraudulent activities is demonstrated by this rigorous verification procedure.
In a related development, the Chief Tax Officer has ordered that only stamp papers valued at Rs. 300 will be used for affidavits.
Further standardising documentation procedures, affidavits on stamp papers worth Rs100 or Rs200 are no longer valid.
To strengthen the security and legitimacy of contracts, the government may soon implement video recording and biometric verification systems. The goal of this action is to make forgery and fraud nearly impossible.
Additionally, to ensure that the new system is implemented smoothly, the authorities have urged the public to work with stamp vendors and refrain from needless arguments.
The Punjab government hopes to guarantee fair justice, increase public trust, and encourage transparency by implementing this innovative system. The cooperation of the populace is essential to the success of this system, which the government is dedicated to establishing.
Punjab is making a big step towards a more open and effective governance structure with this new system.
