MUMBAI: In a relief to a single woman who had adopted a child, Bombay high court on Women’s Day granted her plea to have a caste certificate issued for her minor son.
The single parent, a 44-year-old doctor, had challenged a 2016 refusal by a deputy district collector at Dharavi division to issue the caste certificate and a November 2017 order by District Caste Certificate Scrutiny Committee in Mumbai that upheld the denial.
