Now, tie the knot at your local ward office

indianexpress: THERE’S good news for those couples looking to get a registered marriage done at the earliest. You no longer need to stand in long-winding queues in front of the Registrar of Marriage Bureau to tie the knot.

Just hop, skip and jump to one of the 14 Pune Municipal Corporation’s ward offices and get married right there, right then.

The Public Health Department has issued a Government Regulation (GR) notification, empowering and appointing ward offices of the Municipal Corporation, Chief Officers of the Municipal Councils/Nagar Panchayats and Chief Executive Officers of the Cantonments to assume the role of marriage registrars. The notification will come in effect from March 1 this year.

This means that residents of Pune, Pimpri-Chinchwad, Khadki, Dehu and Pune Cantonment will have additional marriage registration centres at the ward office level and Cantonment board offices. As of today, people can only register their marriages at the Registrar of Marriage Bureaus — in the District Collector’s building near the Pune railway station — which faces a staff crunch and lack of facilities.

The office has just one table, one marriage officer, a clerk and a peon. The bureau receives over 700 applications every month
