Now Get Birth, Death, and Marriage Certificates on WhatsApp: Rajasthan Nagar Nigam Goes Digital
Rajasthan Nagar Nigam Launches WhatsApp-Based Certificate Service: No More Office Visits for Birth, Death, and Marriage Documents
Residents of Rajasthan can now breathe a sigh of relief. Applying for official documents like birth, death, and marriage certificates has become significantly easier. The Rajasthan Nagar Nigam (Municipal Corporation) has launched a WhatsApp-based digital service, allowing citizens to receive essential certificates directly on their phones—without stepping out of their homes.
This new service aims to eliminate long queues, office visits, and delays that people usually face while applying for these certificates. By integrating modern technology into public service delivery, the government hopes to improve accessibility and convenience for citizens across the state.
Now Receive Certificates Instantly on WhatsApp
Until now, residents had to visit municipal offices in person to apply for and collect vital records like birth, death, or marriage certificates. The process involved multiple visits, document submissions, and long waiting periods.
But things have now changed for the better. With this latest initiative, once your documents are verified and approved, your certificate in PDF format will be sent directly to your WhatsApp number. This move not only speeds up the process but also reduces dependency on physical infrastructure.
Who Can Use This Facility?
This digital service is available to all individuals applying for birth, death, or marriage certificates through Rajasthan’s Nagar Nigam offices. The initiative especially benefits:
-
Senior citizens who face difficulties traveling to government offices
-
Working professionals who lack the time for multiple office visits
-
Rural residents who previously had to travel long distances for basic documentation
Important Details Before You Apply
Before applying for any of these certificates, there are a few things applicants should keep in mind:
-
The certificates issued through WhatsApp will feature digitally signed approvals
-
During the registration process, it is mandatory to provide an active mobile number that is linked to your WhatsApp
-
This number must be valid and accessible at the time of application and during document delivery
Application Process: Step-by-Step Guide
Here’s how you can apply for the certificates using the new system:
-
Visit the official Nagar Nigam portal of your city or district in Rajasthan
-
Fill in the required application form for your desired certificate—birth, death, or marriage
-
Upload all necessary documents including identity proof, supporting records, and the mobile number linked to WhatsApp
-
Submit your application for verification
Once submitted, the municipal officials will verify the documents and approve the application. As soon as approval is granted:
-
Your certificate will be uploaded to the online portal, and
-
A PDF copy of the document will be sent to your WhatsApp number
In case you need the physical/original copy, you will still need to visit the Nagar Nigam office to collect it.
Why This Is a Game-Changer
This service marks a significant step toward digital governance and citizen convenience. It helps save time, reduces travel expenses, and cuts through bureaucratic delays. It also helps streamline the workload of municipal employees by reducing in-person service demands.
Most importantly, this initiative reflects the state government's commitment to e-governance, ensuring that even essential services are accessible at the tap of a smartphone.
Conclusion
The Rajasthan government’s WhatsApp-based certificate service is a progressive move that brings vital services directly to the people. Whether you need a birth certificate for school admission, a death certificate for legal documentation, or a marriage certificate for official purposes—you can now access them from the comfort of your home.
If you’re a resident of Rajasthan, make sure to keep your documents ready and your WhatsApp number active. The future of public services is going digital—and Rajasthan is leading the way.
