hello Felix here, I can well understand your concern from the query raised, yes you can apply for a name change, and make for a paper publication and government gazette publication mentioning your previous name, fathers name, your current name, your intended name change, by which you shall be called henceforth, thank you, you can contact me for further clarifications

Yes name can be changed. All the criteria have to be met and complied. There should not be any ongoing or pending criminal cases. Since it is quashed and the case is decided we can go for legal name change.
