Maharashtra Cancels Irregular Birth-Death Certificates

The Maharashtra government has ordered the cancellation of birth and death certificates that do not follow the rules.

This is happening in 14 districts where many certificates were issued without proper checks.

The government says that Aadhaar cards cannot be used as proof for birth details.

Officials have been told to verify and cancel any certificates that were issued incorrectly.

If there are differences between the Aadhaar date of birth and the date on the application, the police will be involved.

This is part of a bigger effort to make sure all certificates are correct and legal.

The BJP has also raised concerns about illegal immigrants getting these certificates.
