Requirement of aadhaar number for registration of death

[Jithin91]

The Aadhaar number will be required for the purpose of establishing the identity of the deceased for the purpose of Death registration w.e.f 1st October, 2017. In a notification issued today the Registrar General India (RGI), Ministry of Home Affairs has said the use of Aadhaar for the applicants of Death Certificate will result in ensuring accuracy of the details provided by the relatives/ dependents / acquaintances of the deceased. It will provide an effective method to prevent identity fraud. It will also help in recording the identity of the deceased person. Further, it will obviate the need for producing multiple documents to prove the identity of the deceased person.

An Applicant applying for death certificate is required to provide Aadhaar number or Enrolment ID Number (EID) of the deceased and other details as sought in the application for death certificate for the purpose of establishing the identity of the deceased.

An Applicant who is not aware of the Aadhaar number or Enrolment ID Number (EID) of the deceased will be required to provide a certificate that the deceased person does not possess Aadhaar number to the best of his/her knowledge and it should be duly informed and also prescribed that any false declaration given by the applicant in this regard will be treated as an offence as per the provisions of the Aadhaar Act, 2016 and also Registration of Birth and Death Act, 1969. Applicant’s Aadhaar number shall also be collected along with the Aadhaar number of the spouse or parents.

Here it is...Govt makes Aadhaar mandatory for registration of death

They should make it mandatory for voting also. There are lots of fake voters as election officials cannot see the face who is under burqa

nt a joke bro.. its something serious..
in all other scenarios a person can take, aadhaar if its necessary. but here how a dead man can take an aadhaar if he needs it. Nd what if a man with out aadhaar is died, he won't be considered as dead..!
Ridiculous idea..
this may be challenged in court very soon

as @Sarkar bro said, it should be mandatory for voting. Voter id should be linked with aadhaar. This should be done first.
