Trichy: The higher education department has simplified the process of obtaining duplicate copies of mark sheets and degree certificates but for aprice, of course.
Speaking to TOI, secretary in the higher education department, Sunil Paliwal said that from now on a candidate only had to apply for a duplicate certificate with an ID proof and required fee to get the certificate issued in a few days. The new system has come into effect.
The duplicate issued by the university will have the same details as the original and will be considered equivalent to that of the original. Before the new system came into effect, candidates were made to run from pillar to post for it. A candidate had to get a first information report (FIR) filed and get a non-traceable certificate after a wait of several weeks in order to apply for a duplicate with the concerned university. In case of losing the semester mark sheet, a police complaint was enough to obtain a duplicate mark sheet.
“Apart from getting nontraceable certificate from the police, candidates had to give an advertisement in the newspaper on the missing certificates. The university used to provide duplicate certificates after submission of both,” said an administrative staff member of Bharathidasan University.
If the duplicate certificate might have cost only ₹100 now, the delay of over a month and beyond in certain cases, mainly due to administrative delay, was more tiring for the candidate, said the staffer.
“A candidate should be able to get a duplicate copy of his or her certificate any number of times. Students need not go to the police station as per the new rule and should be offered a duplicate copy on furnishing a valid identity proof,” said Sunil Paliwal.
However, he said that a reasonable charge had been fixed for it to avoid unnecessary claims for duplicate copies
