Not a legal query.

However, Approach the hospital authority & the municipal office there for necessary corrections.

Address on the birth certificate is not material. No problem.

Certificate of Birth and Proof of Residence are entirely different with each other. So you would not face any problem in future with the address mentioned in the birth certificate.

But for your satisfaction, better try to change the address in the birth certificate with Municipal authorities where the certificate issued.
