A day after L-G of J&K took strong exception to the delay in issuance of Domicile Certificates to the PRC Holders and Migrants, the Government has fixed a deadline of 5 working days for issuing a Domicile Certificate to the PRC Holders and Migrants. The time has been reduced from 15 days to 5 days now and the process has been simplified.

Jammu and Kashmir Lt Governor Manoj Sinha had on Sunday directed the officers concerned to speed up the process of issuance and delivery of domicile certificates in a hassle-free way, as he appreciated the enthusiasm shown by the applicants.

 "All pending applicants be provided domicile certificates within 15 days, and deadline of September 10 is being set, after which no long pendency shall be excused and action against the responsible, underperforming officers shall be taken," Sinha said, chairing a meeting here to review ongoing development activities in Jammu district.

An official spokesman said the LG took notice of the 90 per cent pendency of online applications for domicile certificates and directed the officers to speed up the process through online mode.

He also directed them to ensure seamless issuance of domicile certificates for Permanent Resident Certificate (PRC) holders without requiring additional documents.

The LG laid emphasis on swift delivery of public services and completion of centrally-sponsored schemes at the earliest
