The Government of Karnataka has been at the forefront of digital governance, and its eJanma login portal is a shining example of this commitment.
With the digitization of birth and death records, the state has empowered citizens to access vital documents and services with unprecedented ease and transparency.
Here’s an in-depth look at every major aspect of eJanma, with each keyword addressed separately and the latest updates included.
What is EJanma
eJanma is a web-based application launched by the Karnataka government to electronically register all births, deaths, and stillbirths occurring across the state.
“The platform was implemented on July 1, 2018, and is designed to cater to both urban and rural populations”.
In rural areas, registrations are managed by Village Accountants through Nada Kacheri at the Hobli level, while in urban and BBMP areas, Health Officers and Health Inspectors handle the process.
“Government health institutions and private hospitals also play a role in reporting and registering these events”.
The portal not only streamlines the registration process but also provides digital access to certificates, verification, and vital statistics, making public services more transparent and efficient.
“eJanMa empowers citizens with easy access to vital documents, reducing paperwork and eliminating the need for physical visits to government offices.”
