Man applies for death certificate, gets birth certificate: Panel fines MCF clerk
According to the complaint, the Faridabad resident filed an application with MCF on March 22 this year to get the death certificate of his father, who died on March 19. Instead of the death certificate, the clerk posted at the NIT Zone II office uploaded a child's birth certificate and closed the application in April, the complaint read.
A spokesperson said the commission's chief TC Gupta, a retired IAS officer, took serious note of this administrative lapse on Thursday and ordered MCF to deduct Rs 6,000 from the July salary of the clerk.
Of this amount, Rs 3,000 will be paid as a fine under provisions of the Haryana Right to Service Act, 2014, and the remaining Rs 3,000 will be paid as compensation to the complainant.

"MCF commissioner has been directed to ensure compliance with the order and submit a report to the commission by Aug 11, 2025. The applicant has been asked to send his bank account details to the commission and the municipal office, so the compensation amount can be transferred," the spokesperson said.
In a separate case, the commission directed action against a tehsildar in Hansi city of Hisar for delaying his duty in issuing a marriage certificate.
The spokesperson said that a Hisar resident applied for a marriage registration certificate on March 10. The wedding took place on Nov 28, 2024, and the application for a delayed certificate was submitted along with the consent of the couple's parents. The bride and groom submitted family IDs, confirming their age and address. After the application, the tehsil office raised an objection on the lack of a birth certificate.
The official also demanded a hard copy of documents and additional paperwork.
The commission said in its ruling on Thursday that Haryana govt guidelines state that family IDs are sufficient as proof of age and address.

Peshawar, Jul 27 (PTI) Unknown gunmen fired at a gathering protesting against counter-terrorism operations in Pakistan's northwestern province Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on Sunday, leaving three dead and many injured, a top official said. A day earlier, a mortar strike claimed the life of a girl in the Zakha Khel area of the Khyber District, sparking the Sunday demonstration, during which locals placed the girl's body in front of the Momand Ghuz security checkpoint. Suhail Afridi, the special assistant to the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa chief minister, said three people died and eight were injured in the firing by terrorists on the demonstrators in the Tirah Valley. Following the incident, the grieving families and residents of the area staged a protest by blocking the Tank-South Waziristan Road, and demanded immediate identification and action against those responsible for the killings. Afridi said, 'Following the girl's death on Saturday, locals staged a protest in front of the Frontier Corps compound today. They had gathered near he gates when shots were fired." 'I spoke to district officials who told me that terrorists belonging to Fitna-al-Khawarij fired at the protesters," he said, using the term designating members of the banned Tehreek-i-Taliban Pakistan (TTP). The chief minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province expressed deep sorrow and regret over the Tirah incident. The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government announced compensation of Rs 10 million for the kin of each deceased and Rs 2.5 million for each injured individual.
