My name is "JOHN VARGHESE ' married to 'ANU RAJAN". Our marriage certificate was issued in these two names (maiden name). Now i want to apply for a passport for my wife and i want her name to be "ANU JOHN" in the passport and as a government employee i want to add her also with the same name "ANU JOHN" in my service record. What is the procedure i should follow for this.What kind of affidavit should i make for this?. I would be grateful.

@ Author,
1. Get change of name published in a News paper and then approach Gazette Office with it and get it (name change) Gazette Notified for purposes of using the same before various Authorities in future (passport – visa – driving license – ration card – Aadhar card – tel. connection – bank account - election card etc. amongst others)
2. It is suggested to approach Junior Advocate in District Court for above services for a small fees in case you find it herculean procedure to follow.
3. Take extra copies of Gazette Publication and save them with you for any future purposes.
