The work of a single database of persons responsible for military service, clarification of military registration data from citizens will reduce the number of calls to the military registration and enlistment office in relation to the chairman of the board of directors of Karabanov and Associates, lawyer, candidate of legal sciences Alexander. Karabanov told Gazeta.ru. According to the expert, now registration, deregistration and modification of data will be carried out remotely, without the need to visit the military commissariat at the place of residence.
According to Alexander Karabanov, the extension of the digitization of public services to the military registration system should not force citizens, as this initiative has kept pace with the times.
“The new rule, which obliges a citizen to check the receipt of a subpoena and, if necessary, to appear at the military registration and enlistment office, was introduced precisely by analogy, for example, with the same tax legislation. a citizen is obliged to check his tax return, declare it on time and pay the bills,” says the expert.
The lawyer will clarify that if a citizen nevertheless receives a summons and has legal grounds for not being on these lists, the document provides a procedure for appealing this decision.
“The legislator claims that the trial in a particular case will be held within 5 days so that the consequences in the form of restriction of certain rights provided for by the law do not arise,” Karabanov points out.
Many Russians do not live at the registry, work remotely, or leave to work in other areas, the lawyer continues. The expert states that the format of the electronic personal account will allow a citizen to be aware of these attempts and letters coming to his address, to recognize their content and “most importantly to respond to them in a timely manner”.
He acknowledges that the law passed “had a certain repercussion in society”.
“Some people are trying to escape from military service, but you have to understand that in any country in the world there are duties as well as rights. Service in the army is the duty of a citizen of the Russian Federation. If there is no reason not to do military service, he has to do his military service,” concludes the lawyer.
Recall that on April 11, at the second and third readings, the State Duma immediately passed a bill, which included the creation of a unified register of persons in charge of military service and the introduction of electronic summons.
