i was born on 7th may 1988 at mumbai in my birth records there is a mistake in spelling of my name including my father's and mother's.
but the Municipal oficers says that they can correct only my fathers and mothers name in the birth certificate but the childs name cannot be corrected.
please tell me wether there is any provision in Birth and Death reg. Act of maharashtra for correction in childs name or not and how this can be done.
I hav changed my name in Gazzette office though they are not ready to change the same.

Issue them a notice to do such correction, if they don't correct move to court.
