"I, _______ (Name of the candidate), hereby declare that all the information submitted by me in the application form is correct, true and valid. I will present the supporting documents as and when required." 

It must be in your own handwriting and in English only. If it is written by anyone else, or in any other language, your application will be treated as invalid. Visually impaired candidates who cannot write may have the text typed, place their left-hand thumb impression below it, and upload that.
