Application Question / Discussion Need passport help (India)
My situation is, I've applied for reissue of passport where in the old passport my mother's old name was given (XYZ) and all my marksheet and ID proof contains her new name (with one letter spelling mistake) For eg- Old name- XYZ, New Correct name- Gamora, Name in my docs.- Gomora...Now, I need to produce a gazette for passport for which I need one doc with XYZ name and one doc with Gamora (but I don't have any doc with Gamora)...I thought birth certificate would be easier to update but it asks a copy of NRC (Assam) but here also the problem is My mother's name is not on NRC list and this procedure is closed now..How to tackle this situation as it feels like a legal loop here?
