It is important to correct the spelling mistake in your documents to avoid any legal issues in the future. Here are some legal remedies you can consider:

1. Gazette Notification: You can correct the spelling mistake by publishing a gazette notification. This is a legal document that is recognized by the government and can be used to update your name in all your legal documents. You will need to submit an application to the Government of India's Department of Publication along with the required documents to publish the notification.
2. Affidavit: You can also make an affidavit stating that the incorrect spelling in your documents was a mistake and that you are the same person with the corrected spelling. You can submit this affidavit along with your other documents to prove your identity and correct the spelling mistake.
3. Court Order: If you are facing difficulty in getting the spelling mistake corrected through the above methods, you can approach a civil court and obtain a court order for correction of your name in your documents.
It is important to note that correcting your name in your documents will not automatically update the name in the property or agricultural land documents. You will need to update the name separately in these documents through the relevant authorities.

You should consult a lawyer experienced in property and land law for specific legal advice on how to proceed with updating the name in the property and agricultural land documents
