Sir,

It is mandatory to keep the same records every where else, otherwise using two seperate name at seperate placed despite of change of name will be deemed as fraud done by your father and it is a criminal offence and punishable. so do the needfull urgent.

If it is not possible to change the surname in all those government and revenue records at this stage, you can carry the gazette publication along side to prove the changed name evidently. There is no problem about it. Also, wherever they use their name, let them use their new name itself.
