As it depends on the department/agency of Government issuing the particular document/certificate which you want to amend then, you will have to approach the concerned official for the same. In case if the authoritative person denies for ex: A Registrar, then you will have to approach the Civil Court or a High Court having jurisdiction over the area of your residence. In case of correction in the Birth Certificate you will have to approach the concerned Registrar appointed for your locality and if he denies opt for the aforementioned court proceeding.

For name correction in Aadhar card, you can request name correction online or offline.
Online, you can visit UIDAI’s Self-Service Update Portal and login with your Aadhar number and OTP. You can then select the option to update your name and upload a self-attested copy of a valid proof of identity document. You can also track the status of your update request online.
Offline, you can visit the nearest Aadhar enrolment/update centre and fill out the Aadhar correction form2. You can also attach a self-attested copy of a valid proof of identity document and submit it to the operator. You may have to pay a fee of Rs. 50 for the update service. You can also check the status of your update request by calling 1947 or visiting the UIDAI website.
