From next month, getting caste, income, marriage, domicile certificates will be “hassle-free” with the Delhi government simplifying the procedure for 12 services by doing away with the affidavit and requiring only self attestation and introduction of stringent law for making misuse of the facility.
The certificates which one will be able to avail hassle-free from the next month include, OBC, SC/ST, domicile, disability card, income, solvency, surviving, death order, marriage registration, birth order and lal dore certificate.
The government will table the proposal in the next Cabinet meeting.
“From December 1, the government has decided to simplify the procedure of getting various certificates. However, the government will also make provisions in law to strictly punish those who give false information in their applications,” chief minister Arvind Kejriwal said here.
He said that for example, at present for getting an OBC certificate, an applicant has to give proof of verification in Delhi since 1993 required in every case, but from December 1, no proof will be required if a certificate has been issued to any relative from parental side.
