What about your original birth certificate?
Country of your own birth can be the proof of your domicile, not your father's. You are not asking for the domicile of your father.
I don't think domicle case falls under the scope of consumer right protection. You may approach to the concerned SDM (Civil) or the District Collector if the Tebsildar is not willing to entertain your application. BDO may not be competent to issue a birth certificate. If your birth was in a village, the birth record may be available with the village pradhan, as is notified to the municipality of the jurisdiction through village chowkidar and are police chowki, etc.

In fact it is not necessary to file birth certificate of father. As suggested by Mr. Dhingra, you make a grievance to higher authorities. If the things do not work, you should file a writ petition in HC.
