  1. And whereas, in the reference 5th read above, the Chief
    Commissioner of Land Administration, Andhra Pradesh has reported that

    Competent Authorities are permanent in nature. That however, several
    State Government departments and institutions are asking for the most
    recent caste/community certificate, duly ignoring the caste/community
    certificate issued on a previous date by the Competent Authority. As a
    result, the permanent nature of such a caste/community certificate, which

    against the spirit of Act 16 of 1993 as well as G.O.Ms.No.58, Social

    fresh certificates imposes a huge burden on the common citizen.

    caste certificates previously issued, based on existing record and
    proposed to utilize the improvement in technology and available database
    of caste/community certificates to address the issue of repeated demand
    for caste certificates by Departments.

    finally requested the Government to issue instructions in order to improve
    the ease of living of citizens and in view of existing position of law that, a
    caste/community certificate is of a permanent nature.

    Date of Birth Certificates to Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes and
