Nagaland Government Requires Identity Verification for Unauthenticated Employees by June 3

The Nagaland government has mandated all unauthenticated state employees to submit identity documents for verification under the Personal Information Management System (PIMS) by June 3. Aadhaar is the primary document for authentication, but employees without Aadhaar or unwilling to provide it may submit any two approved alternative IDs, including PAN card, driving licence, passport, bank passbook, or HSLC Class X admit card. This directive aims to enhance employee authentication and governance transparency, addressing previous incomplete Aadhaar linkages.
