You can jnquire it only with the said police station. There is no such website available for employees to do the same. The said website is only used by govt agencies to track people
How do I check if there are any FIRs, charge-sheets or convictions against an applicant for a job role? Is the only process to fill out a verification form and apply to the local police station? Is there an online method? The website www.digitalpolice.gov.in says that "authorized" entities can confirm criminal antecedents of a person online. Who is authorized? And can my company apply for such type of authorization?

Yes, in many states there is online e-courts system where from necessary information can be sought for and obtained.
if you are a public authority then can seek information from local police station through proper official channel.
To search online no separate authorisation is required.
1. The term "authorized personnel" means ONLY & ONLY the Statutory Agencies (Police, CID, CBI, GST, IGR, Customs & Excise etc....).
2. BESIDES the mentioned statutory agencies, NOBODY else is authorized to view any public records of individual citizens. Further, ONLY the statutory agencies can issue appropriate reports, which is admissible as documentary evidence in courts, in matter of any disputes /prosecutions /etc....
ask applicant to state on affidavit that there are no criminal cases pending against him / her
2) The authentication of residential addresses, educational and criminal records is typically outsourced to third party background verification companies.
3) the industry body for technology companies, National Association of Software and Services Companies, maintains a centralized database of IT and ITES employees and third-party verified information on education, experience history and personal details of these professionals.
Dear Client,
Get the bond from the employee about criminal antecedent ? This way employee can be prosecuted if bond found false in future. And verification can be done by requesting to local police station of his residence by paying minimal fees or can get through RTI.
Hi,
You may check the said record through online and also engage investigation agencies for the said record against the employees.
It is suggested that the investigation agencies do the background verification on some payment and you may avail the facilities.
Thanks. So investigative agencies have a license to check antecedents online through some portal? Or do they go through the same offline process? Is there any recommendations on how we can get multiple verifications done in a very short turn-around-time?
No license is necessary to check antecedents of a person.
So you can very well engage a private detective to this job.
Hi,
The investigation agencies do the work through their own network and they do approach the govt authorities for getting authentic information. They have due license to do their work. You may approach them as per your need of bulk work.
the prevalent norm is for human resources (HR) to conduct a reference check from past employment based on the information provided by a candidate. The authentication of residential addresses, educational and criminal records is typically outsourced to third party background verification companies.
These agencies usually take between seven and 10 days to give a report and charge between Rs2,000 and Rs3,000 per candidate. The fee goes up in case of extensive checks and for senior level hires.
The police personal are only authorised to access same further you can ask them for a Affidavit and further seek a Police verification report from the employee.
They have access to common portal to check if there is a FIR pending against the person.
Ask them for a police verification.
1. You have to check the online database, if any available in your state. If no such database is available in your state then you will have to conduct manual verification by sending your verification team to the police station within whose jurisdiction your employee resided. A declaration may also be obtained from the employee to state whether he has been involved in any criminal case.
2. The 'authorised entities' means investigating agencies like police, not private individuals.
You know it more than anyone that if you are involved in any crime or any police case involving FIR and charge sheets.
However from ecourts also you can find out if there are any FIRs pending agaisnt your name.
The company may send a request to the concerned police station to verify the character and antecedents fot eh candidate of the company while offering an employment.
