How can I preserve my most prestigious certificates forever?

Have you been spending hours searching for an important document and still not getting it? Every time you go for that interview, you have to struggle to find all the required documents. Let it be a new bank account opening or submitting an entry form for a sports event, you keep on submitting multiple documents like your birth certificate, Aadhar Card, PAN card etc. again and again. Laminating the original documents, preserving old documents adds an extra expense and occupies more space. Plus whenever that important meeting or interview is due, the transport of these documents is a tedious task (have you considered the weather conditions??) In an overly populated country like India document management is getting tougher and tougher day by day.

So is there a solution to these problems?
What if all these documents get saved digitally and accessed anytime from anywhere i.e. from your mobile?

A simple app called DigiLocker developed by Government of India could help you make it a reality.
