Dear Client,
You must file a civil suit for rectification of your father name by showing all the boards as opposite parties for rectification of name of your father. Court will direct the boards to rectify the name of your father and issue modified marks list or you can file a writ petition in the concerned High Court for rectification of name of your father`s name. You can choose either of ways. You must engage an expert advocate for necessary steps to be taken. After rectification of name of your father, you can apply for passport, otherwise you will face hardship in future.
