NEW DELHI: The Centre will replace the requirement of furnishing affidavits with self-attested declarations in a major chunk of government-related work and an official order in this regard will be issued soon, Union minister Jitendra Singh said on Tuesday.
“This thought (to promote self-attestation) was in the process. But it was not been implemented in the full way. No notification has been issued on it. It will be done soon,” he told a press conference on works done by the ministry of personnel, public grievances and pensions during the 100 days of the NDA government.
He said different departments have different sensitivities. However, self-attestation would be pushed to the maximum extent possible, the minister said. (PTI)
