Birth, death registration to go online: Collector
On-line registration of date of birth and death would
soon be a reality in GMC area, District Collector and Special Officer of
GMC S. Suresh Kumar said on Thursday.
At a review
meeting held here, Mr. Suresh Kumar said that registration of births
would be made possible at the health centre/hospitals through on line.
Each centre would be provided with a user ID and password with which the
centres could upload details of the birth, the name of father, date of
birth and place of birth etc. Similarly, registration of date of death
certificates could also be done by the hospitals themselves.
People
seeking a date of birth certificate had been forced to wait for 15 days
before they could get the certificates. Personnel from the GMC have
been collecting details of births/deaths manually from the hospitals and
this would change once the online registration begins. Residents could
get the certificates from the Meeseva centres.
Special
software would be designed for the purpose and training programme would
be held for hospital personnel. The Collector also said that the basic
infrastructure in GMC schools would be put in place soon. He asked the
GMC officials to provide drinking water, toilets and benches in all
schools before the next academic year begins. He asked the Education
Officer to take measures to improve the record of pass percentage.
Reviewing
the developmental works, Mr. Suresh Kumar said that Rs.12 crore worth
works have yet to begin after work orders were issued and asked the
engineering personnel to complete the works as soon as possible.
Municipal Commissioner K. Venkateswarlu, Additional Commissioner P.
Srinivasalu, Superintendent Engineer, Adiseshu, Incharge City Planner
Vijay Kumar were present.
