A.Dear Client,
Based on your choice and convenience you have to decide which name suits you in the given circumstances. In case you want to keep your father's name as appears in your academic records in your Aadhar and Birth Certificate, you can do so by opting 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/surname, the desired name/surname, the reason for the change of surname, and any other relevant details declaring that the "A s/o B " and the "A s/o C" 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 or Executive Magistrate. 2) The next step in the name/surname 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/surname 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/surname change deed. The said deed is a legal document that confirms the name/surname change and includes the details of the old and new name/surname. 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/surname 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 wherever and whenever required. It is essential to follow the correct procedure to ensure that the name/surname change is recognized by the concerned Authority.

A.Dear Client,

To correct the discrepancy in your documents, especially regarding your father's name, follow these steps:

1. Aadhaar Card Correction:
Contact the Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) to update your father's name in your Aadhaar card. Visit the official Aadhaar website or Aadhaar Enrollment Center for the correction process. Provide the necessary supporting documents, such as your birth certificate.

2. Educational Documents:
It's essential to maintain consistency across your educational documents. You should consider correcting the father's name in your educational records to match the correct name. Contact the respective educational institutions where you studied, and inquire about their process for updating information in academic records. They may request valid documentation, such as your corrected Aadhaar card.

3. Birth Certificate:
If your birth certificate has the correct information, you may not need to make any changes to it. Ensure that all other documents align with the information on your birth certificate.

Remember to gather and keep copies of all relevant documents, including the corrected Aadhaar card, for future reference. If you encounter difficulties during this process, seeking guidance from legal professionals or authorities may be beneficial.
