I have been hearing a term “DLDD”. What does that signify?

As the Legacy Data is relatively old, it is quite likely that a large number of people would have moved from one place to another since the time of preparation of the original Legacy Data. This would require that a single state-wide Legacy Data set is prepared and published. Preparation of such a single state-wide Legacy Data set is not possible by way of physical printing as 1.) the space requirement for their storage would be extremely high and 2.) it would not be feasible for the public to search through such a huge pile of papers. The only feasible option for such a single state-wide Legacy Data set is by way of compilation of soft copies of the images. Such a compilation of the soft copies of the Legacy Data images and their corresponding digitised records is called Digitized Legacy Data Development, shortly termed as DLDD.
Search in DLDD can be done either through

a. Searching amongst the digitised records
b. If the above does not work, then searching through the images of the respective villages. It is possible that some records which were digitised could it be meaningfully linked with the images due to poor legibility, torn condition or otherwise. In such cases, searching of images is the only possible alternative. Once the name of the person is discovered through image search, a unique Legacy Data Code will have to be assigned through -

i. Either at the NSK or
ii. Through online application made through the NRC web-site.
