This query is : Resolved
Respected Experts, I am in such a dilemma and hard to buy one of my lawyers argument stating that once a Birth Certificate is issued, no one can change any details in it and nor be reprinted.
My issue is that by mistake my Mothers name is wrongly printed as "Bhagyamati" instead of "Bhagyashree". Now the lawyer is stating that there can be no way that the Certificate could Ben reprinted by rectifying the name. Only a Gazette copy would be made for any usage of the said Certificate.
The Certificate is to be documented in Gujarat.
This Certificate is to be used for Green Card of Australia.
Can some expert please help on this urgently.
Thank in in advance.

Contact the concerned registrar office to know the procedure and documents required for correction of name.
If they refuse to guide use RTI to know the procedure.
Discuss in detail with your lawyer if still not satisfied with the guidance from Registrar Office.

Agreeing with experts.
Hope you know how the error has happened.
From hospital or application made to Registrar or by O/o Registrar.
Get all relevant docs and try to find out.
Check at Registrar’s office.

You will know the procedure and requirements.
The state govt. might have kept the procedure and FAQ on its website also e.g;

Apply to the Registrar of Birth and Death of your area for making necessary amendment in the certificate.
In case the Registrar refuses file an appeal before Financial Commissioner (or his appellate authority).
Seeking services of a local lawyer would bring better result.
