Everyday Aam Goeankar goes home disappointed for not finding his birth or marriage or death records. If you ask for a solution with the Sub – Register he says there isn't any or has to register your birth or marriage or death once again.

So who has to pay the cost to re – register? Why does the applicant/public has to register their records if the authorities are going to destroy the same or lose them?

To bring a solution to this issue a group of people have come together to chalk out a strategy and action plan so that general public are not harassed by the concerned authorities. More details will follow & I do hope Goans all over the world will lend their full support for this good cause.
