Grievance: I am Kavithaponnu from Tirumangalam dist Thathankulam. I gave petition at Madurai for Abandoned by husband certificate. They said you have to get signature from VO. We went to VO and he asked for any document related to Abandoned by husband. I said i dont have any document for that. Its been 6 years that he left me and i dont have any proofs related to that. He is asking for either death certificate or Divorce certificate. I am not able to do anything. We went till Madurai. we are women in similar situation. Please help us. Reply: I am Ponnusamy from TLRF. The certificate for abandoned by husband is the certificate given by Tahshildar. Role of VO is he willl give the certificate by checking marriage certificate or by verifying from village heads. A petitioner if she is staying away from 5 years only then she will be considered as abandoned by husband. By applying it in e-service center you can get the document within 15 days.
