Sir,
Heard that Govt: of India Union Ministry is giving chance for those who holds more than one Indian Passports to surrender their all passports with a penalty of Rs.5000 and an Original new passport will be issues based on the new original documents and new Police Verification Report, is there any such amendments made in the Passport act ? or is there any such Order / Circular / Gazette notification from Govtl ? Kindly advice
