To
Al Chief Registrar of Births and Deaths
‘Sub: Clarification regarding determination of place of death of a missing
person,
sir,
Please refer to this office letter of even number dated 29% December,
2011 vide which a clarification was issued on determination of date of
death of missing person in such cases where date of death is not
‘mentioned in court order,
2. In response to above clarification, few State Governments have
raised certain query on determination of place of death in such situation,
‘where Court has not mentioned the place of death in its order. In view of
the above, this office has again referred the matter to Union Law Ministry
for their advice. The Ministry has advised that:
When provisions of Section 13(3) of the RBD Act, 1969 provide for
registration of death in such cases by the competent court orders only «ind
when ‘date of death’ may be mentioned as the date when plaintiff
‘approached the court, it appears to be prudent that ‘place of death? may
be that place where plaintiff approached the court. In case of
ambiguity, suitable clarifications may be sought from the Court itself.
3. This letter is issued in continuation of this office letter of even
number dated 29% December, 2011 with a request to circulate the
contents of this letter to all the district and local level registration
suthorities to enable them to register the death of a missing person, This
office may also be appraised about the action taken in this regard
alongwith the copy’ of instruction issued in this regard,
Yours faithfully
