Now birth death certificates just a click away !

Birth, death and marriage certificates issued by local bodies are now just a click away. Information Kerala Mission (IKM) has uploaded details of all the certificates registered since 2000 which can be downloaded from the IKM website. The print-out of the certificate down loaded from the website is authentic as it carries a watermark of the Kerala Government. Around 80 per cent of the local bodies had registered the details of the certificates. Steps have been taken for establishing broadband connection at all the local bodies, he said. “Around 450 to 500 local bodies have been provided with broadband network. After completing the web connection, the certificates can be downloaded as soon as the data is entered,’’ Shamsuddin said. IKM is in the process of completing computerisation of 978
grama panchayats, 60 municipalities, 14 district panchayats
and 152 block panchayats. It is hoped that all the panchayats
would go online within five months. This system helps the public in ensuring that the data entered in the system are correct. Any correction in the certificate can be carried out by approaching the local bodies with relevant documents.
