How to make changes in the Birth certificate


08-Oct-2023 (In Civil Law)
I was born in Andhra Pradesh (AP) and my hometown is in MP. During my graduation, i was required to submit domicile certificate (i was in Pune that time) which i did not have. Since it was a mandatory document, i had to procure another birth certificate (and the domicile certificate) from my hometown (through a relative) in which it was stated that my birth place was MP. Now, i fear that i inadvertently have done a mistake (this was 10 years ago). After that incident, i may have mentioned my birth place as MP (which would be incorrect) in any of the legal documents (for example: electoral voter form). Will i be jailed due to it? Kindly guide me how can i correct this as well as if i can correct my birth place to AP in the documents where i may have mentioned the birth place as MP. Does the govt. have scheme like the income declaration scheme for these issues? Please maintain confidentiality.

Yes domicile is an important certificate needed in admission or at the time of service / government jobs. By the way changing place of birth is not possible but yes if you explain properly about your requirements I can plan to something out of it in MP, since I am from Bhopal. If you have studied up to 10th or proved to be at the place for continuous 15 years, your domicile certificate can be made.
