Bhubaneswar: The Commissionerate Police on Monday launched e-Police License service to issue permission for marriage functions and funerals in the capital city.
Informing this, Police Commissioner Soumendra Priyadarshi said those in twin cities who want to apply for license for organising marriages or funerals can visit the Commissionerate Police website and then go to the link – Apply for Marriage/Funeral License – and fill in the prescribed form.
