If you have a case pending against you under section 498a and you have applied for passport renewal, you may need to provide the following documents as supporting evidence to the passport office: Copy of the FIR (First Information Report) lodged against you. Copy of the charge sheet filed by the police. Copy of the regular bail granted to you by the court. Copy of the court order in which the regular bail was granted. An affidavit stating the current status of the case, stating that there are no pending warrants or summons against you in relation to the case. Any other documents that can support your claim that you have been attending court hearings regularly. It is important to note that the requirement of supporting documents may vary based on the policies of the passport office in your jurisdiction. You may want to check with the passport office to find out the specific documents they require for processing passport renewal applications in your case.
