R D E R:
The status of Civil
Registration of Births and Deaths in the State has been causing some concern to
the Government. The Registrar General,
India and the Director of Census Operations, Andhra Pradesh Cum-Joint Registrar
General, India have been expressing concern on the poor-performance of the
State in respect of Civil Registration of Births and Deaths.
2. One
of the major reasons for the under-performance seems to be lack of proper
reporting system rather than lack of registration itself. It is observed that although the
registrations are taking place, the reports are not reaching Chief Registrar of
Births and Deaths due to which the performance is not reflected in the monthly
reports and other periodicals. It is therefore decided that the chain of
reporting should be clearly established and dead lines fixed so that there will
be no confusion in the minds of various Registration Authorities. Further, the State has a vast network of
computers covering all the Mandal Revenue Offices, Municipalities, Municipal
Corporations, Collectorates, with the District Collectorates linked to the
State through the Andhra Pradesh State Wide Area Network (APSWAN) which is
shortly going to be extended till the Mandal level. It is therefore felt that the data on Civil Registration of Births and Deaths should be computerized at
the Mandal level and data transferred to the State Headquarters electronically.
3. In view of the position stated above the following instructions on the chain of reporting and computerisation shall be followed:
1.
Chain of Reporting
(a)
In
respect of rural areas all the Panchayat Secretaries will submit the
statistical part of monthly reports to the concerned Mandal Revenue Officer by
5th of next month.
(b)
The
Mandal Revenue Officer in turn will send an abstract compiled for all
the villages in the entire Mandal to the District Revenue Officer (DRO) before
10th of every month. The
MROs having dial up connectivity will transfer the data electronically and the
remaining will send in a floppy to the District Revenue Officer (DRO).
(c)
In
respect of urban areas the Municipal Commissioner /Municipal Health Officer,
Executive Officer, Secunderabad Cantonment Board and Incharge persons of
Industrial / Project Township will send a consolidated report of the
information of their respective jurisdictions in a floppy to the DRO of the
concerned District by 10th of every month.
(d)
The
DROs will send the reports of rural areas and Municipalities through APSWAN to
the Chief Registrar by 15th of every month.
(e)
The
Special Officer / Municipal Commissioners of Municipal Corporations will send
the data directly to the Chief Registrar by 15th of every month
through APSWAN.
(f)
In
effect all reports pertaining to the Civil Registration of Births and Deaths of
a month should invariably be made available to the Chief Registrar by the 15th
of next month.
1.
The
Project Director, C.M.R.O., Office of the Chief Commissioner of Land
Administration, in consultation with the Andhra Pradesh Technology Services
(APTS) shall prepare the required software and create a secure and password
protected website for the Office of the Chief Registrar of Births and Deaths.
2.
The
computers available in the Mandal Revenue Offices, Municipalities, and
Municipal Corporations shall be used for computerization of Births and Deaths
by utilizing the existing manpower.
4. These Orders will come into force with immediate effect.
