Father's name problem in passport and 10th cbse certificate

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 18 December 2021 This query is : Resolved 
Hello, please respond to my query urgently.
My father's name on my 10th memo (CBSE, passed in 2016) and state intermediate and bachelor certificates is different than his name given on my old passport. I am looking to pursue Masters's abroad but my passport renewal is being rejected because his name is different on my 10th memo and my old passport. I am based in Hyderabad but my father comes from Mumbai. In Maharashtra, they generally add the father's name to the child's name and so my father had my grandfather's name attached to his name in all of his documents. But they don't do this generally in Hyderabad. So, my father ended up writing his name without my grandfather's name on my and my siblings' educational certificates. Basically, now my old passport has my father's name with my grandfather's name in it but my 10th memo doesn't have like that. My father's passport has his name with my grandfather's name attached to his name and he also has a spelling mistake in his 1st name in his passport. My question is how can I renew my passport with my father's name given on my 10th memo. Educational certificates cant be changed now so I need to follow them in order to study abroad. But, passport officers will reject my educational certificates and label me as illiterate to link me to my father's name on my old passport. If this happens, I cant study further ahead. Please suggest me how should I renew my passport with his name given on my 10th memo and not the name given on my old passport.

It is better to get your father name published in a Gazette as" your father name alias your father name adding with his father's name are one and the same" and hence now my name is ......... The application for getting published in Gazette, you have to file an application with Annexure-I through the Tahsildar concerned.

Thank you for the reply @kavkasatyanarayana sir. The problem is more complex. We are 5 siblings out of which 4 have passed 10th (all CBSE). My father's name on my 3rd and 4th sibling memos are totally different. I and my elder sibling have the same name of my father on our memos. But my 3rd sibling has a different name and my 4th sibling has a different name on the 10th memos. If we change our father's name according to my elder sibling's and my memo, it will help us but it will still be a problem for my 3rd and 4th sibling whose 10th memos have different names of my father and on their old passports. What can be done in this situation sir?

so you must go to gazette notification for all purposes.
