Duty of Notary - The primary role of a notary is limited to attestation of the document presented before him. He does not verify the authenticity or contents of the document beyond certifying signatures or identities involved. The court emphasized that the notary's duty does not extend to validating the document's genuineness or contents, and his scope is confined to attestation only. Ashok R. Hiremath VS Vijayamala - Karnataka, INDHC020099482014
-
Certification Scope - Notaries certify signatures of authorized signatories without verifying the underlying document's content or authenticity. Their certificates do not include sample signatures or detailed verification, underscoring the limited nature of their role. Arvind Khanna VS Central Bureau of Investigation - Delhi
-
Legal Implication - Since a notary's role is strictly attestation, implicating a notary in criminal proceedings related to document fabrication is unwarranted if he merely performed his duty of attestation. The notary's function is not to authenticate the document's contents but to attest signatures, and criminal liability arises only if he exceeds this scope. INDHC020099482014
-
Summary - The main insight is that a notary's duty under Section 482 CrPC is confined to attesting documents, and they are not responsible for verifying the authenticity or contents of the documents. Any criminal proceedings against a notary should consider this limited scope. The court consistently held that the notary's role is procedural, and exceeding this role can lead to unwarranted legal actions.
