Our father Died in July 1991 and somehow the death certificate could not be made at the time. In the meantime we lost/misplaced all the photo identification of our father. Can I get the death certificate of my father in absence of a photo identity card? Death certificate is one of the required documents to get the family pension for my unmarried sister. What could be the alternative to the death certificate? 

There is no alternative to the death certificate. You have to apply for the certificate even after delay and loss of photo identification of your father. In this situation you should take a certificate from the Sabhasad of your ward. You can apply online for death certificate.

His certificate is admissible in case of loss or unavailability of any government identity card. If your father had any bank account then the passbook is also admissible in the photo identification of the deceased person. Loss of original document may cause hurdle but there is alternatives which is admissible.
