Hi. I have changed my name in the Maharashtra gazette. I have also got an affidavit notarized and have advertised my name in two newspapers. My questions are as follows:
1. Is it necessary to change name in educational certificates of 10th, 12th and graduation? Or are the affidavit, gazette and newspaper publications enough?
2. Do I need to notarize the gazette? (A lawyer suggested that I do so)
3. Is the Maharashtra Gazette, affidavit and newspaper publication enough while applying for a visa or a new job, or should I publish my name change in the Gazette of India also?
Please advise. Thank you.

Your maharastra gazate pulication is enough for future applications what ever its may be.. Gazate pulication has no restrospective effect. Hence you cant change your name from your education certificates..
