@Ajay Sethi sir: Thanks you for your help. Notarized Affidavit is ok. No need of Gazette notification. Correct? How much is the validity of Notarized Affidavit? It has any expiry?
affidavit does not have any expiry period
you dont need gazette notification as name has of your son has not changed
Gazette publication would be needed as in many places without gazette publication, it would not valid. and to have perpetual effects you have to have the name change/ single identity declaration published in the gazette saying identical person. also be needed to publish in newspapers for this effect.
Dear Client,
To address the name discrepancy concerning your son’s educational documents, a notarized affidavit is a suitable solution. You can draft an affidavit stating that "Herin Patel" and "Herin Yagneshkumar Patel" refer to the same individual. This document should clearly outline the relationship between these names and include details from all relevant documents, such as the 10th and 12th marksheets and the Aadhar card.
Regarding the validity of a notarized affidavit, it does not have a specific expiration date. The affidavit remains valid as long as the facts stated within it are accurate. If any documents or circumstances change, consider updating or re-executing the affidavit to maintain clarity and accuracy, ensuring it aligns with the current information. In your situation, there is generally no need for a Gazette notification. Such notifications are typically required for formal name changes or legal identity changes but may not be necessary for clarifying existing discrepancies in educational contexts. A notarized affidavit should suffice to address the issue at hand.
While there are no specific laws governing name discrepancies in educational documents, general legal principles allow individuals to clarify their identity through affidavits. Section 23 of the BSA recognizes affidavits as valid documents that can be used to establish facts in legal proceedings, which supports your approach.
To execute the affidavit effectively, draft it to include your son’s full name as per Aadhar, his names as per the 10th and 12th marksheets, and a clear statement affirming that all names refer to the same person. After drafting, get the document notarized by a registered notary public.
Hope this answers your query.
You may have to get an affidavit executed by your son stating that his name as per.....is... and as per........ is....., however both the names are one and the same, then this notarized affidavit may be published in a local newspaper, keep all the records together to prove the names are one and the same.
You are right in your understanding, that the affidavit should contain both the names and to be stated that both the names are one and the same person.
- As per law , you cannot change or correct the name of your son in the academic certificates after maximum period of two years from the date of passing the same.
- However, the documents can be corrected at any time after furnishing the proof of correct name or an affidavit for the same.
- Further, for higher qualification the name in all the certificates should be same , otherwise he may be face trouble in future.
- However, you can publish a notification in the official gazette or your state.
In your school certificate the name is 'HERIN PATEL' whereas your full name is 'HERIN YAGNESHKUMAR PATEL', hence in the affidavit you may have to state that both the names belong to one and the same person, this affidavit is to be notarized and published in a local newspaper.
The affidavit duly notarized has expiry date. It is valid when supported by newspaper publication.
If the gazette publication is also made then it will more authentic, no doubt it may not be mandatory
It may suffice but if you want to change it in all documents and applied universally gazette notification and paper publication will be better idea
