Panaji: After deciding to put the registration of Sanjay Dutt’s marriage in Goa on hold, the state government on Sunday said it would issue a showcause notice to Manyata. Manyata will be asked to withdraw a residence certificate she submitted to register the marriage, said Salcete taluka’s senior revenue official Paresh M Fal Dessai. South Goa district collectorate is inquiring into the validity of the residence certificate. According to officials, Manyata gave a certificate signed by a a lower level revenue official instead of a senior official, who is authorized to issue a residence certificate. There have also been doubts whether Manyata has stayed in Goa for six months as stated in an affidavit given by her landlord in South Goa. ‘‘Manyata will be issued a show cause notice asking her to withdraw the certificate,’’ said Dessai. The notice will be issued to Manyata by early next week, officials said. The state government has suspended the lower level revenue official who issued the residence certificate.
