Police Certification for issue of Passport in India.

From the news reports available on the Web, I gather that no more certification from the Police is needed for issue of Passports in advance. The Police need to send only the negative list to the Passport Officer. And it was said that the procedure of issue of Passport has been simplified a couple of months back and the isuance has also been reportedly simplified and speeded up drastically. I am to submit application for renewal of my Passport in a month's time in Bangalore. I shall then share my experience in this regard with this Forum.
