However, 60 gram panchayats included in these nine municipalities have been dissolved. The people of these 60 gram panchayats are stuck without the issuance of government records including birth, death, marriage and income certificates.&nbsp;The panchayats have been dissolved and merged, but the newly formed corporations do not have the data.In this situation, the process of issuing government records has been largely disrupted. Amidst the uproar, some municipalities including Anand are issuing simple birth and death records through stamps. However since the data has not been transferred, computerized records are not being issued.On the other hand, the nine municipal corporations have proposed to get official approval from the government to issue these records, but the approval is awaited.Mehsana, Morbi, Navsari, Surendranagar, Gandhidham, Vapi, Anand, Nadiad, and Porbandar were declared as new municipal corporations on January 1.Local sources suggest that people in 60-gram panchayats are facing problems in obtaining birth, death or marriage certificates.On the other hand, even after getting the nod from the authorities, people will have to travel all the way to the city to obtain birth, death and marriage certificates.When asked about this, the Deputy Municipal Commissioner of Gandhidham Municipal Corporation said that a resolution has been sent to generate SSO IDs in e-Nagar for the authority to issue birth, death and marriage certificates by all the newly declared Municipal Corporations including Gandhidham Municipal Corporation.
