Procedure to get fire NOCs goes online in Ahmedabad

The official giving the opinion will have to state the exact number of various pieces of equipment installed and this will be mentioned on the certificate.

The Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) has decided that to get fire no-objection certificates (NOCs), no citizen will need to visit any office. As part of the Smart City project, the AMC has taken the entire process online.

Nitin Sagnwan, the deputy municipal commissioner in charge of the Smart City project said, “The AMC has started the online process where the application for fire NOC can be made online. The opinion for it will also be online and the certificate also can be downloaded,” he said.

AMC officials said the online system will reduce the interface with citizens and also irregularities. The official giving the opinion will have to state the exact number of various pieces of equipment installed and this will be mentioned on the certificate.

If there is a fire and equipment is missing or not functioning, the person who gave the opinion can be held responsible.

Officials said the entire process will be login-based and no one will be able to operate another person’s account. The officer said a feature will also be added where an SMS or email will be generated before the NOC expires.. The AMC, as part of the Smart City project added an additional feature to its complaints portal. The feature enables citizen to give feedback about the handling of the complaint that they lodged.
