| dbo:abstract | - Gazetted Officers are executive/managerial level ranked government officers in India. Authority for a Gazetted Officer officer to issue an official stamp comes from the President of India or the Governors of States. To that effect, they are de jure representatives and delegates of the Indian State and the President. If and only if a person's appointment is published in the Gazette of India or any state government gazette with their name, he/she is called Gazetted. Any appointment released and published in the government gazette is called a gazetted appointment. The Gazette of India and state gazettes are official government publications, which publish the appointments or promotions of certain government officials along with other government ordinary/extraordinary notifications. An officer, who is appointed under the seal of the Governor at the state level or by the President of India at the national level (and in the Union Territories), requires being listed in the Gazette of India or state government gazette and is considered to be a Gazetted Officer. Many are honorary Justices of the Peace and have the same standing as some of the government officers. Such officers, among other functions, have the power to verify the documents for financial, industrial, immigration, and other purposes. A notary public is also a gazetted officer. (en)
