This query is : Resolved
sir,
My client is from Thakor Community. They had not registered her daughter's name in birth & death register maintained by municipality.
unfortunately, she is 22 year old but illiterate and uneducated so she does not have School leaving certificate.
Now she wants to register her marriage.
so the question is that whether the certificate issued by Civil Surgeon is valid certificate for age confirmation?
is there any judgement of SC or any of HC?
its urgent because parents of girl are ready for the marriage but not the boy's father......

No, this is not a valid certificate.,
A certificate under oath from Ist Class magistrate or tehsildar would be valid.
