    OFFICE MEMORANDUM
    Subject: Self-certification

    The Second Administrative Reforms Commission in its rz" Report titled


    "Citizen Centric Administration - The Heart of Governance", has recommended
    adoption of self-certification provision for simplifying
    procedures.(www.darpg.gov.in)

    2. Taking a cue from this some Ministries/State Governments have adopted


    the provlslon of self-certification of documents like marksheet, 'birth certificate etc.
    by the applicants/stakeholders instead of asking for an attested copy of the
    documents by a Gazetted Officer or filing of affidavits. Under the self attestation
    method, the original documents are required to be produced at the final stage.

    3. You will appreciate that the above method is citizen friendly and obtaining
    either an attested copy or affidavit not only cost money but also involves wastage
    of time of the citizens and the Government officials.

    It is requested to kindly review the existing requirements of attested copy or


    affidavit in various application forms in a phased manner and wherever possible
    make provision for self-certification of documents, after obtaining the approval of
    the competent authority.
