Legal Name Change - Different name in passport and educational certificates?
-
Hi everybody. I am 25 year old graduate. I live in Uttar Pradesh. In April 2009 I changed my name from "ABC" to "Aarav Gupta". For this purpose I made an affidavit in the format given on passport website and got it notarized by public notary. Then I gave advertisement of change in name in two news papers ( Dainik Jagran and Amar Ujala ) and also in Government Press Allahabad. I obtained 3 copies of gazette. Then I applied for passport ( for the first time ). In the form I filled "Aarav Gupta" as my name and "ABC Gupta" as my old name. All my educational certificates , D.L. and voter ID show my old name. 1) I did not get court permission. Instead I got the affidavit notarized by public notary. Is it sufficient or I did mastake ? 2) Is it compulsury for me to get my name changed in all educational documents ? I came to know that it is cumbersome process and hence I want to avoid that. 3) What should I do if I have to submit educational documents ? In Government Press Office , they suggested to submit a copy of gazette notification with educational documents. Please help me. Different people have suggested different things. I am totally exhausted. Please give your advice only if you know about it legally.
