HYDERABAD: An administrative change has left residents of Circle-9 in
Charminar
running from pillar to post to get birth/death
certificates
.
Assembly Election Results
The trouble began after the section which was in Sardar Mahal was shifted to Phoolbagh. Now, locals say that they are being made to run between the two places to get a simple job done, be it for the
certificate
or corrections. “I submitted an application for rectification in my daughter’s birth certificate. It’s two weeks and I am still doing the rounds of Phoolbagh and Sardar Mahal everyday,” an upset Mairaj told TOI.
The residents said that the matter was brought to the notice of local leaders but they reportedly turned a blind eye towards the issue.
Taking strong exception against the shifting, Telangana Telugu Desam Party( TTDP) urged the GHMC mayor and commissioner to bring all matters in Circle-9 under one roof for the convenience of applicants from Charminar. “The people have to suffer a lot for birth &
death certificates
. Applicants are being told to submit documents at Phoolbagh area and pay challans at Sardar Mahal. It should all be at one place for people living in and around Charminar,’’ said Mohammed Ahmed, TTDP (GHMC, minority vice-president).
