NDLM (National Digital Literacy Mission) is a Central Government scheme to bestow IT training to rural citizens - empowering them with digital proficiency for electronic transactions, internet usage and computer operations. Mantra's biometric devices enable accurate beneficiary registration and attendance verification for NDLM centres.
The National Digital Literacy Mission (NDLM) is a digital initiative launched by the Central Government to bestow IT training to the rural citizenry - enabling them to acquire digital proficiency. The intention is to avail digital literacy to people in rural sectors of the nation - teaching them how to utilise electronic gadgets, operate internet connections for payments and carry out basic computer operations.
NDLM effectively utilises cutting-edge biometric devices for registration of beneficiaries at training centres. Aadhaar-based biometric authentication ensures that genuine rural beneficiaries are enrolled, attendance is accurately tracked, and training completion certificates are awarded to those who genuinely completed the programme.
Aadhaar biometric registration ensures only real rural beneficiaries - not duplicates or ghost entries - are enrolled for NDLM digital literacy training.
Daily biometric attendance prevents proxy training and ensures course completion records accurately reflect genuine participation.
USB connectivity with local authentication capability ensures the device functions even in areas with intermittent internet connectivity.
End-to-end encrypted biometric data transmission compliant with UIDAI security standards for government scheme authentication.
USB plug-and-play setup with auto-install drivers - ideal for NDLM training centre staff who may have limited technical expertise.
Same device serves CSC e-Services, PMKVY, DigiLocker and other Digital India schemes - maximising value at each training centre.

Yes. Mantra MFS110 and MIS100V2 connect via USB and store biometric templates locally during authentication. While online UIDAI authentication requires internet, the devices support offline modes through UIDAI-certified software - ensuring functionality even in areas with intermittent connectivity.
NDLM training teaches beneficiaries to access DigiLocker for digital documents, use UPI/BHIM for digital payments, access government portals (UMANG, MyGov), make online utility payments, and use internet banking - all of which are enhanced by Aadhaar biometric authentication through Mantra devices.
Mantra supplies UIDAI-approved biometric devices to NDLM implementing agencies, CSC e-Learning centres and rural digital literacy training providers across India.
