Want to use step father name for passport

@ Author,

1. The RPO's still work with medieval mindset (i.e. insisting for adoption certificate usually in such cases) inspite of knowing well about several Writ directions as issued by various State HC's in India in similar matters i.e. above 15 years old child wanting to use step-father's name in h/er passport has been allowed under Writ by several HC’s of the Stae.

2. The remedy now is to take the written Objection of RPO about their refusal to State's HC to issue a Writ of Mandamus (need services of a Advocate locally found via reference to file one such Writ of Mandamus in your State's HC) to RPO on the basis of fair play, equity and even as a matter of prudence, showing at HC all along you have used step father's name under various documents and even your natural mother has a clear divorce decree from her earlier marriage and then has a clear registration of her second marriage with your step father.

With above Writ of Mandamus filing in State's HC your purpose will be solved.
