NON RENEWAL OF NOTARY CERTIFICATE

ashok kumar jain (Querist) 13 December 2009 This query is : Resolved
Sir , I have been duly appointed Notary by Govt of Rajsince 1992. My certificate of Notary was to be renewed from 21.07.2007 for which I duly applied to the Govt. but the matter was pending. It is disclosed to me that The Govt of Raj decided not to renew the certificate of all the Notaries pending since 2007 on the ground of certain amendment in the Notaries Rules and consequently rejected the Renewal applications of about 600 Notaries of the State, including me, without assigning any reason . is the Govt of Raj is empowered to do so? Is the decision of the Govt is legal and Constitutional. If not what remedy is available to me? I have file a Writ in HC Raj which is pending.

No such amendment in the notary act with regards to the renewal. Only change in procedure to appoint the notaries.
Wait for the High Court decision. I think you will be succeeded.
