To correct your name in school records, follow these steps:

  1. Notify the School : Submit a formal application to the principal requesting the correction, along with supporting documents like your birth certificate and ID proofs.

  2. Affidavit : Prepare an affidavit stating your correct name, attested by a notary public.

  3. Newspaper Publication : Publish a name change notice in at least one local and one English newspaper.

  4. Gazette Notification : Apply for a name change notification through the state government gazette.

  5. Update School Records : Submit the affidavit, newspaper clippings, gazette notification, and updated ID proofs to the school for record correction.

If the school is uncooperative, you may need to approach the education department or seek legal assistance, and in some cases, a court order may be required.
