Unable to apply for passport for my grandson
23-Aug-2023 (In Documentation Law)
I am unable to apply for my grandson's passport being a maternal grandmother. My grandson's parents have divorced and deserted their child and now i am looking after his education and well being. As per the rules of the passport office only a legal guardian can apply. Can i be the legal guardian of my grandson if yes how can i become one and if not who can? Please help
for that under the guardians and wards act through court you have get it granted that you are the legal guardian of your grandchild and after that you can process the same. it is not that difficult per se.

Yes you can apply for legal guardianship by filing an appropriate application before the relevant court having jurisdiction and thereafter with such certificate of guardianship you can apply before the passport authority
