Q:Correction involving change of name |
|
Whether the correction or cancellation of entries in births/ deaths registers under section 15 of the Act also covers change of name? Whether Registrar is competent to effect correction involving change of name in respect of births/deaths occurred and registered prior to enforcement of the 1969 Act? |
|
A: The question of change of name may be viewed from two angles. The first is that there may be some clerical error in writing the name in the register. For example, Ram might have been written by oversight as Ram Lal or the word Chandra might have been written as Chander. The correction of the name under such circumstances may be covered under section 15 of the Act. Similarly, the name might have been fraudulently or improperly entered in the register. This would also fall under section 15. The second aspect would cover such cases where a person changes his name and thereafter makes a request for the change of the name in the register also. Such a contingency is obviously not covered under section 15 of the Act. The name is one of the various entries prescribed in the register. So the change of name would be in fact, a correction of the entry relating to the name. Every case in regard to the request for change of name should therefore, be considered in the light of the aforesaid observations. |
