"It is a constant endeavour of the Government to simplify procedures by introduction of self certification. For this, all Central Ministries/Departments as well as state governments/UTs have been requested to review the existing requirement in this regard and make provisions for self-certification, wherever possible. Response from 20 states/UTs has been indicating action taken by them," Singh said.
