REGISTRATION OF VALID MARRIAGE

2009-05-20T08:25:00.000-07:00

MARRIAGE BY CONTRACT ON THE ROCKS
Getting married in minutes by signing a deed before the sub registrar was common once but not VALID as shown in moovies.
Contractual marriage was once the stuff around which the malayalam movies were made.
The Kerala High Court has ,as recent as two months ago, recomented to the Govt to ament the Kerala Registration of Marriages Rules to prohibit registration of contractual marriages.
Registration under the Special Marriages Act requires one months notice and that either the man or the woman should have lived in the area under the jurisdiction of the marriage officer(the sub registrar officer) for at least two months.
My advice is get the marriage legal by Special Marriage Act. ....IF U have NO

ABOUT OMBUDSMAN ITSELF

SO THERE IS A BAN IN USING US , THE ADVOCATES BEFORE THE OMBUDSMAN FORUM
AS PER THE GOVERNMENT CIRCULAR.
What is your opinion? I would like to know the opinion of LSGIs and the Secretaries.
What I am going to do is to file a petition before the Prl.Secretary to cancel or withdraw the said Circular as an Advocate. Then if the Govt. hesitates I would think of approaching the Honb'le Ombudsman itself.
Oh! What an idea!
That all after getting your comments.

LSGIs engaging service of legal practioners-dispensed with....

2009-02-14T01:16:00.000-08:00

GOVERNMENT OF KERALA AS PER CIRCULAR No..34166/IA/08/lsgd Dated 24.05.2008
have instructed to dispense with the practice of engaging legal practioners before Ombudsman
I think it will be better to copy the Circular then ofer my comments so that you can also offer your comments and suggestions.
CIRCULAR
Sub: Proceedings before Ombudsman-practice of LSGIs engaging services of legal practitioners to present their case-dispensed with-Instructions issued.

It has come to the notice of the Government that the local Governments and Secretaries of local Governments are frequently engaging the services of legal practitioners to present heir case before the Ombuds man for the LSGIs in respect of the cases where come up for consideration of the Ombudsman.
Sub-section 6 of Section 271 N of the Kerala Panchayat Act,1994 lays down that "in any
proceedings before he Ombudsman, no legal practitioner will be permitted to represent any person unless the Ombudsman permits by an order a person to be represented by a legal practitioner for reasons to be recorded." This provision is based on the principle that the conduct of cases by the Ombudsman is basically inquisitorial in nature. The case to be disposed of by the Ombudsman ordinarily are to be settled on the basis of records and factual statements.
Engaging legal practitioners before the Ombudsman is against the spirit of the provisions of the Act. The private parties may however insist on engaging the service of legal practitioners for their cases and the Ombudsman may or may not permit such engagement of legal practitioners for reasons to be recorded. But the Government consider that the Local Government and the Secretaries are to making any request before the Ombudsman for permission to engage legal practitioners on behalf of LSGIs and that incurring of expenditure from the funds of the LSGIs for engaging legal practitioners for presenting their cases before the Ombudsman cannot be allowed. The elected office bearers or Secretaries have to present the case of the Local Government before the Ombudsman by himself or through an authorised officer conversant with the facts of the case.
In the above circumstances all the Local Governments are here by instructed that in future the Local Governments and the Secretaries should not engage legal practitioners for defending cases of Local Governments before the Ombudsman.

Principal Secretary to Government.

ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATE IN BILINGUAL FORMS

2009-02-08T05:37:00.000-08:00

While issuing certificates of events registered before the introduction of standardised formats, since no entry relating to present and permanent address exists inscribing NIL caused difficulty for applicants. Now the Office of The Registrar General of India has clarified that an entry that "the original records do not contain the column relating to present and permanent address"
shall be made in the remarks column of the certificate.
In the case of adopted children the permanent address and present address of adopted parents, who have adopted the child, may be written in the birth certificate format.

The petitioners seek correction of name of their child in the birth register from John Francy as Allen John Francy.Court held that it is clear that the entry in the birth register is not by mistake but as per the information supplied by the petitioners themselves.

After hearing both the parties the court held like this :
" The power of the Registrar to make corrections in the names of persons by virtue of Sec.15 after conducting enquiry as envisaged by R.12 of the registration Births and Deaths Rules,1990 cannot be in doubt especially in the light of circular No. B1- 2815/2007 dated 7/11/2007 of the Chief Registrar,which is binding on the 2nd Resp- the Gr Pt Secretary, cannot be in doubt. What the 2nd respondent contends is that he is not prepared to construe the original entry as erroneous since the same was made on the basis of a joint application filed 5 years after the child's birth was reported by the hospital to the corporation. To err is human and when the father of the child declares that the name of the child entered on the basis of joint application was erroneous I do not find Abby special circumstances to suspect on the bonafides of the request of the petitioner and I direct the 2nd respondent to change the name of child of the petitioner as Niya Varghese from Neenu Varghese.

20039(1) KLJ 781
Kerala Regn of Births and Deaths Rules 1999- Rule 11(2) . When there is corroborating evidence like the hospital records to support the entry in the birth register the Registrar is not bound to act upon the assertion of the applicant or the declaration of the persons claims to have knowledge about the date of birth.
...... among other things the learned counsel for the appellant submitted that if the appellant's date of birth is not corrected in the Birth Register of Kottayam Municipality he will not be able to apply for a Green Card in the U S A as the date of birth shown in his passport is different from the date of birth recorded in the birth register of Municipality. The Hon'ble court held that influenced by such sympathetic considerations the court cannot direct the statutory authorities to act against the statutory provisions.

This cannot be said to be a change of name and direct the Registrar yo make a correction in the name of the child as Lekshmi Priya . Menon."

SALMA THAKREY BRACES FOR LIFE AFTER HER PARTNER'S DEATH AT THE HANDS OF TERRORISTS.
You might have read this caption in today's daily THE HINDU.
I was in the detailed reading of it before sleep,after closing my blog as told in the previous.
"Sunil and Salma were run away victims for ill treatment at home.They met at Mumbai. Lived together. Salmas children called him father.He run a tea stall near CST gate. Shot dead by terrorists that day on November 2008.. Salma lost everything."
After Sunils death the couple's un-married status became a major problem for everything including the meagre compensation.They thought..when they have accepted in hearts, what is the point in marrying?
Had there been a marriage certificate or at least a registration under any statutory rule... things would have been different.
What needs change ...The Acts and Rules or what? Please comment.
