Hi Friends,

Really very good response.

Here I'm to explain the problem of my Cousin.

His father name is misspelled and printed wrong.

In his 10 class Certificate (All certificates)  his Father Name is spelled wrong. Hence he has gone to SSC board and tried to get it corrected. But no luck. :(

So now in some documents it is right and in some certificates it is mis spelled.

So how to get it rectified using this NAMe CHANGe approach discussed above.

In other wards how to chaange Fathers name? His Name is correct.

 

Thanks in advance
