In some states, there is no DW license system. Where there is the system of issuing DW license, there will be an exam conducted by the Registration Dept. And in some states, who knows the drafting of documents and a graduate may be applied in the proforma and shall be paid a license fee. Where are you from? Consult in the District Registrar's office or you may obtain it on the website of IGR of your state.
