ABSTRACT
This paper puts forward some case studies that have led to the computerisation of the entire process of marriage registration and led foundations for discarding the manual system in practice. Attempts have been made to highlight the drawbacks in the manual system of preservation of records, the pitfalls and perils. This write-up is in line with the declaration of the Hon'ble Supreme Court of India that all marriages should be registered.
Keywords: Marriage Registration, ACTs of Marriage in India, Notice under Solemnisation of Marriage, RGM, NOMO, HMR, ISR, CSR, Aadhaar

Introduction
MARREG is an eGovernance application software whose services are delivered through a portal https://rgmwb.gov.in. This software has been designed and developed by National Informatics Centre with the primary aim of easing the government’s business transaction process of handing out marriage certificates. These marriage certificates or Certificate of Marriage record the solemnisation of a marriage between a male and female citizen within the State of West Bengal in the Republic of India respecting the laws of the land (governing ACTs of marriage). This G2C connect and, the effort of enhanced service delivery, evolving as an efficient system, entices the use of technology for leveraging effective managerial framework in the field of dissemination of effective public service.

                        An approach to implement and establish good governance has propelled this computerisation programme by the Law Department for their Directorate - O/o The RGM, that has been supported by the Government of West Bengal

Barely had my son completed the honours of closing the garage gates that I usually do and, settled down in the co-driver’s seat while I was at the wheels. It was parked momentarily by the road near my residence, before intending to take off to attend to an appointment wit...

Such personnel were the eyes of the organisation at the ground level. It was a mass recruitment of sorts where, the country was reshaping itself, a couple of decades after independence. Observing his deft skill-sets, he was selected by his peers for a foreign posting, most immediately. Every...

[With avid inputs from Sanjay Choudhury, my friend and batchmate from REC (now NIT) Silchar] The place of posting was more than 150 kilometers from home. But roads were good and the car strong, that would barely take three hours to reach on weekends to the comforts of sweet home. That was a regular practice since my posting here as my family couldn’t join due to educational obligations of my only child. I never gave a second thought due to easy accessibility and, otherwise disciplined traffic. They would also join me whenever they felt like. Another week was about to end for me to show up at home. But then, it was difficult to gauge from the moods of madamme and my child on arrival, whether they were happy or the other. The travel bag, a duffel, was small but had enough space to hold a few essentials. It was quite usual to keep a couple of sets back home so that, everytime I’d visit, there wasn’t any dearth of garments that would enbrace my body on the three nights that I stay put forg...
