== History ==<br />
The Civil Registration System (CRS) in India has a long story dating back to middle of 19th century. A central [[Birth1974|Births1974]], [[Death]]s, and Marriages registration bill was passed in 1886 to allow consensual registrations across [[British India]]. The Registration of Births and Deaths Act (RBD) was passed in 1969 after independence to improve consistency and comparability in the recording of births and deaths throughout the nation.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Civil Registration System |url=https://crsorgi.gov.in/about-us.html |access-date=2024-06-03 |website=crsorgi.gov.in}}</ref><br />
