A Decade of Verified Failure
Bihar's academic credential verification system is structurally broken.
Current System
- ✗Vigilance officers physically travel across states to verify one certificate at a time
- ✗Background agencies charge Rs. 3,000-15,000 and take 30-90 days per credential
- ✗Existing digital solutions only timestamp certificates — if the original is fake, the digital version is too
- ✗University records are missing — folders "not available"
Praman
- ✓Digitizes examination registers — the source of truth, not paper certificates
- ✓Two university officers must sign every batch — one person cannot fake it alone
- ✓Students claim credentials via Aadhaar identity — never submit paper
- ✓Employers verify in under 5 seconds at Rs. 50-100
How Praman Works
Digitize Source Records
Data is entered from university examination registers — the physical ledgers in the Controller of Examinations' office. Two officers verify and digitally sign every batch.
Students Claim via Identity
Students prove identity with Aadhaar eKYC. The data already exists on-chain from the university's own records. No paper certificate is ever submitted.
Instant Verification
BPSC, employers, and agencies verify credentials in under 5 seconds via API. Cryptographic proof with machine-readable assurance levels.
The Core Principle
The paper certificate a student holds is a copy. The examination register is the truth. Praman works from source records, making fraud structurally impossible.
