Going online: Mughal-era documents, property papers dating back to 1870 - with the launch of the Delhi government’s ‘e-abhilekh’ website
Touted as a “first-of-its-kind exercise in Asia”, the project, announced by Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on August 31, 2017, is a work in progress, with an ambitious aim of digitising and uploading 4 crore documents over 30 months.
From February 13, at least 60 lakh documents — including Mughal emperor Shah Alam II’s 19th Century farman, partition decrees, and property papers dating back to 1870 — will be available free of cost to the public, with the launch of the Delhi government’s ‘e-abhilekh’ website.
