Aadhar Card name and DOB restoration to the original one
20-Jul-2026 (In Civil Law)
"My brother's Aadhaar originally contained the correct name (Sourav Singh) and DOB (17/08/2001). Later, both the name and DOB were updated. We now want to restore the original details because they match the birth certificate and all educational records. The Regional Office has indicated that the DOB cannot be updated again. We want to proceed under UIDAI's exceptional handling SOP and would like your advice on the affidavit, supporting documents, and the best way to present the case."
As per my advice, you are advised to institute a civil suit for declaration and mandatory injunction against the concerned authorities seeking correction of the relevant official record. The proposed suit should pray for a declaration that the existing entries in the official record are incorrect, erroneous, or contrary to the true facts and that the plaintiff is legally entitled to have the record corrected in accordance with the authentic documents and applicable law. Along with the relief of declaration, a decree for mandatory injunction should also be sought directing the concerned authority or department to make the necessary corrections in its records and issue fresh records reflecting the correct particulars. Before filing the suit, all relevant documents supporting the claim, including identity documents, certificates, revenue records, correspondence, representations made to the authorities, and any orders passed by the competent authority, should be collected and placed on record. If any representation has already been submitted to the authorities and no action has been taken, the same should also be pleaded to demonstrate that the plaintiff exhausted the available administrative remedies. In my considered opinion, filing such a suit is the appropriate and efficacious legal remedy for obtaining the necessary declaration from the competent Civil Court and securing consequential directions for correction of the official records.
