Another scam related to issue of birth and death certificates has surfaced in Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation. According to sources, about 80 birth and death certificates were issued from Falaknuma circle alone since November last, without proper documentation.
For births and deaths that happen outside hospitals, non-availability certificates (NAC) attested by the respective birth and death registrars are a mandatory requirement for issue of certificates.
Same is applicable for births and deaths that happened a long time ago and do not have hospital records.
