The Indian law mandates that you must have four documents with you when
you drive: Your original Driving license, Original valid pollution under
control (PUC) certificate and photocopies of vehicle Registration
Certificate and vehicle Insurance Certificate.
Besides the mandatory documents, the drivers of vehicles should also
carry health related documents such as medical insurance papers, blood
group, latest update about any disease and drugs (like diabetes, seizure
medicines).
Just as the Motor Vehicle Act allows drivers to also carry the required documents electronically, all medical documents can also be carried in an electronic format. These can also be stored in your phone in any app.
RTI: That digital format papers is the only requirement
