A.Dear Client,
A standalone affidavit of a first-class Judicial Magistrate may not serve the purpose of correcting of name of your father that appears differently in different documents. To resolve the issue legally, you need to pursue the following steps. 1) An affidavit is a legal document that is used to state facts under oath. The affidavit should include the applicant's current name, the desired new name, the reason for the surname change, and any other relevant details declaring that the 'Khokan Das' and the 'Tarak Das' are the same and one identical person. The affidavit should be made on a stamp paper of the appropriate value as per the state where the applicant resides and should be sworn preferably before the 1st Class Judicial Magistrate/Executive Magistrate. 2) The next step in the name change process is to publish a notification in the Gazette of India. The Gazette of India is a publication of the Government of India that contains official government notifications, including name change notifications. The notification should be in the prescribed format and published in at least two local newspapers. 3) After publishing the notification in the Gazette of India, the next step is to make out a name change deed. The name change deed is a legal document that confirms the name change and includes the details of the old and new names. The deed should be made on a stamp paper of the appropriate value as per the state where the applicant resides and should be signed by two witnesses and notarized by a Notary Public. 5) The final step is to submit the name change deed to the relevant authorities for information and records. The applicant may also need to provide additional documents, such as a copy of the Gazette notification and a copy of the affidavit for updating the records. It is essential to follow the correct procedure to ensure that the name change is recognized by the Government and other relevant authorities.

A.Dear Client,
Document verification during a government job application typically aims to confirm the authenticity and accuracy of the submitted documents. In your case, where there is a difference in your father's name in his documents, such as "Tarak Das," compared to the name "Khokan Das" mentioned in the property paper, the affidavit you obtained from a first-class magistrate serves as a legal declaration addressing this inconsistency.
During document verification, it's essential to present all relevant documents, including the affidavit, explaining the variation in names. The affidavit is a legal document that provides clarity and formalizes the acknowledgment of the difference in names.
To enhance the transparency of your case, you may want to proactively inform the concerned authorities about the variation and provide them with a copy of the affidavit. This proactive approach can demonstrate your commitment to transparency and resolve any potential concerns that might arise during the verification process.
Thankyou
