Quick Summary

This discussion addresses how to correct a discrepancy in the place of birth listed on a Leaving Certificate. The advice given is that if your birth certificate correctly states your place of birth (e.g., Mandopa), a different place listed on school records (e.g., Athani) should not be an issue for official purposes like obtaining a passport. The birth certificate is considered the definitive record.

You cannot correct the school records for any reason.

If the place of birth conforms to the birth place recorded in the birth certificate, it should suffice the requirements for all the purpose.

The place of birth if correctly mentioned in the birth certificate then there is no problem about a differnt place mentioned in the school certificate.

You can get the passport issued based on the biorth certificate
