Wrong spelling in the death certificate of my father


14-Sep-2023 (In Property Law)
My father & I are joint members of a housing cooperative society (both Hindus). He expired recently & there is a spelling mistake in his death certificate. If I get an affidavit from a first class magistrate, stating there is an error & that the correct spelling is as per the aadhar card. Would this affidavit be sufficient for the Registrar of Coop Societies in west bengal, to accept the request for deletion of the name of my deceased father? else what is the procedure?

You can write a letter to the Registration of Births and Deaths under your Municipal corporation requesting change/correction of the spelling. In addition to this, you will have to provide an affidavit on Rs.100 stamp paper duly attested by first class magistrate, copies of change of name advertisement in newspaper and fill the form for change of spelling before submitting the same.
