Dear Friend,

As you know father is a person who's sperms make the child.  The case is the same under law also. You cannot change a child's father under the whims and fancies of a person. 

If the lady wants to insert her second husband's name, she can do it in the Guardian Column and not in the father's column.

Himanshu shukla which  state do you belong, it is possible change the fathers name  in your case file a suit is to be filed in Principle district court, against municipality in which you have registered your sons birth certificate, and in the birth certificate, only the column father name is mentioned, no where it is mentioned as " natural father or true father" so you can change to present fathers name but you must convince the judge, which is a difficult task so engage a Good lawyer for your case.
