Delay in Issuance of Passports
New Delhi: July 14, 2004

Lok Sabha

There are several reasons for delay in issue of passports such as increase in number of passport applications, submission of incomplete information by the passport applicants, delay in receipt of police verification and shortage of staff.

Several measures are taken by Government from time to time to eliminate pendencies in issue of passports. These include special drives to eliminate pendencies in delay cases by deploying additional staff from other passport offices, computerisation, decentralisation of submission of passport applications to district level, machine writing of passports and expediting police verification.

This information was given to Lok Sabha today by the Minister of State for External Affairs, Shri E. Ahamed in reply to a question by Shri Kashiram Rana.
