At present, Tahsildars/ Deputy Tahsildars are issuing
Income
Certificates for various purposes including School Admission, Fee
Reimbursement, Scholarship schemes, SC/ST/BC/Minority Corporation loans
and other Govt Schemes, Bank loans etc. Government have felt that, White
Ration Cards are issued for BPL families only and when they require Income
Certificate, White Ration Card should be enough proof of their Income status.
Further Income Certificates are being issued annually. This is causing
hardships to people as they have to approach the Revenue authorities
repeatedly. Several representations have been received regarding hardships in
getting the Income Certificates by the public from Revenue authorities.
