Ahmedabad City Crime Branch marks history as India’s first police unit to collaborate with UIDAI on Aadhaar-powered hotel guest checks. The Pathik initiative, touted by Deputy CM Harsh Sanghvi on X, is digitizing Gujarat’s entire hotel ecosystem under OVSE 2026.
Gone are the days of cumbersome paperwork. Hotels generate QR codes; guests scan and verify via Aadhaar in seconds. No copies, no forms, no signatures—just pure efficiency.
A strict privacy-by-consent model ensures data security, winning public trust. It dismantles forgery networks, prevents ID misuse, and deploys real-time biometrics to block threats at entry points.
Pathik’s potential reaches tenant verification, employee screening, and fortified neighborhood security. Sanghvi celebrated it as a booster for tourism confidence and Gujarat’s image as an advanced, visitor-centric state.
Ultimately, Pathik exemplifies how strategic tech integration yields transparency, protection, and user-friendliness. It’s reshaping law enforcement, hospitality, and public safety in profound ways.
