Father’s Middle Name in My Documents


23-Jul-2026 (In Civil Law)
Hi Sir, I’m adding my surname through Gazette. Affidavit and newspaper publication are done. Since birth, all my documents show my father’s first name + surname only. Later, he added his middle name to his own documents, and my siblings’ records have it too. Should I keep my records unchanged for Gazette and correct his name later, or update it now? If later, will a One & Same Person affidavit be needed?

Proceed with your Gazette entry as is and do not many any change in the same and also keep a One & Same Person affidavit ready for future cross-referencing for future, and use the same when required, handle your father's name correction separately, if only required
