Man applies for death certificate, gets birth certificate: Panel fines MCF clerk

Gurgaon: The Haryana Right to Service Commission this week imposed a fine on a municipal corporation of Faridabad (MCF) clerk for submitting a child's birth certificate instead of a resident's request to get his father's death certificate. According to the complaint, the Faridabad resident filed an application with MCF on March 22 this year to get the death certificate of his father, who died on March 19. Instead of the death certificate, the clerk posted at the NIT Zone II office uploaded a child's birth certificate and closed the application in April, the complaint read. A spokesperson said the commission's chief TC Gupta, a retired IAS officer, took serious note of this administrative lapse on Thursday and ordered MCF to deduct Rs 6,000 from the July salary of the clerk. Of this amount, Rs 3,000 will be paid as a fine under provisions of the Haryana Right to Service Act, 2014, and the remaining Rs 3,000 will be paid as compensation to the complainant.

The applicant has been asked to send his bank account details to the commission and the municipal office, so the compensation amount can be transferred," the spokesperson said. In a separate case, the commission directed action against a tehsildar in Hansi city of Hisar for delaying his duty in issuing a marriage certificate. The spokesperson said that a Hisar resident applied for a marriage registration certificate on March 10. The wedding took place on Nov 28, 2024, and the application for a delayed certificate was submitted along with the consent of the couple's parents. The bride and groom submitted family IDs, confirming their age and address. After the application, the tehsil office raised an objection on the lack of a birth certificate. The official also demanded a hard copy of documents and additional paperwork. The commission said in its ruling on Thursday that Haryana govt guidelines state that family IDs are sufficient as proof of age and address.
