Obtaining an equivalence certificate for your M.Phil degree can be important for various purposes, including government job applications and higher education. If your college is not willing to issue the equivalence certificate, you can take the following steps:

Contact the College: Initiate communication with your college's administration, preferably in writing (email or formal letter), explaining your request for an equivalence certificate and the purpose for which you need it. Request clarification on why they are not willing to issue it.

Meet with College Authorities: If initial communication doesn't yield results, request a meeting with the college authorities, including the principal or registrar. In the meeting, try to understand their concerns or reasons for not issuing the certificate. Be polite and respectful in your interactions.

Review College Policies: Carefully review your college's policies and regulations regarding equivalence certificates. Ensure that you are complying with all the requirements and procedures set forth by the college.

Check with State Authorities: Contact the relevant state authorities or educational boards responsible for issuing equivalence certificates in Kerala. In some cases, they might be able to guide you on the required steps or advocate on your behalf.

Consult Legal Counsel: If your college continues to refuse to issue the equivalence certificate without valid reasons, you may consider seeking legal advice. Consult with an attorney who specializes in education or administrative law to understand your legal options. They can help you explore whether you have grounds to take the matter to court.

Consumer Court (if applicable): Consumer courts typically handle disputes related to goods and services. While it's not common to approach a consumer court for educational matters, you can explore this option if you believe that your college's refusal is unjust, and you have suffered financial losses or damages as a result. Consult with a legal expert to assess the viability of such a case.
