Hi !
The deceased 'x' being hindu got married a muslim lady and subsequently died issueless, then the widow of 'x' adopted a female child gave her the name as 'Mahboobunissa' and brought her up and performed even the marriage with the muslim groom as per the muslim customs. Further, as the deceased 'x' was with Government Department on Compassionate grounds the widow got appointment and her name in the official records is 'Tara Bai'.
Now, the said 'Tara Bai' i.e., widow having crossed the age of 50+ want to give the details of her adopted child and bring them officially on record for all future benefits but the officials of the Government Department are refusing to enter the name of the adopted child i.e., 'Mahboobunissa' in to their official records as the name of the widow is 'Tara Bai' and her daughter's name is 'Mahboobunissa'. What is the remedy left over to 'Tara Bai' to bring her daugther's name i.e., 'Mahboobunissa' into the official records.
regards.
