Citizens or institutions can verify the authenticity of their Nadakacheri certificates issued by the Revenue Department through the AJSK portal using the Nadakacheri Certificate Verification (CV) facility with their certificate’s RD number. Below are the details on how this verification works and how you can verify your certificates online.
What is Nadakacheri Certificate Verification (CV)?
While the issuance of certificates like caste, income, agriculture, pension-related, and other documents has become more convenient, ensuring their authenticity is equally important. This is where Nadakacheri Certificate Verification (CV) comes into play. The CV process allows individuals, organizations, and government bodies to verify the legitimacy of certificates issued through the Nadakacheri portal.
The verification process is designed to prevent fraud and misuse of certificates, ensuring that only valid documents are accepted for official purposes. Whether you’re applying for a job, admission to an educational institution, or any government scheme, the CV process adds an extra layer of credibility to your documents.
