landmark Maharashtra Right to Public Services Act, higher and technical
education secretary Sanjay Chahande on Saturday promulgated an order to provide
retotaling of marks, duplicate marksheet, duplicate degree, verification of
documents and migrationeligibility certificate within stipulated period.
“We
have issued an order to provide basic services linked with the higher and
technical education department. If the competent authority fails to provide the
documents within the stipulated period, stringent action will be taken against
himher as per the provisions of the act. Besides disciplinary action, the law
provides for fine for erring officials,“ a senior bureaucrat told TOI.
Giving
the specifics, the bureaucrat said that now it bureaucrat said that now it will
be mandatory for the competent authority to complete retotaling of marks within
15 days; provide duplicate marksheet and duplicate degree within 15 days; and
migrationeligibility certificate and document verification within 30 days. For
the examinations conducted by the directorate of technical education, score
card of common entrance test will be issued in 30 days, duplicate marksheet
within 15 days and for the Maharashtra State Board of Technical Examinations,
it has been mandatory to provide migrationeligibility certificate within
21days.

which controls all the universities in the state, will go a long way in ending
red tape and harassment of students. “In the absence of stipulated time,
students seeking duplicate documents, verification of documents and migration
or eligibility certificate faced a difficult time. The students were at the
mercy of the clerks in universities. This are also the main areas where
students face harassment and corruption at educational institutions,“ the
bureaucrat said.
