Along with the xerox copies of the identity proofs and other relevant documents supporting your father's name and last resided address,you as the legal heir of your deceased father can make a Declaratory Affidavit before the First Class Magistrate praying for such rectification of error in the death certificate of your father by the Municipal Authorities and thereafter you will have to file that duly affirmed Declaratory Affidavit  before the Municipal Authority following the necessary procedural compliance.be it by filing certain Form or otherwise. 

Yes. Agreed with the advise of Ms. Banerjee.

What is the nature of correction to be carried out?

Before all that get a copy of laid down procedure  under RTI from Births and death Registrar and follow that laid down procedure.

Information solicited:

1. Please provide a copy of laid down procedure/order/notification/process that states for correction of ......................column in the death certificate.

Generally officials of MC do not do such grave error as stated by you. Subsequently when you have asked them to rectify the same, they are no one to ask for school leaving certificate.

However, if it is so, you should have filed a suit for declaration and mandatory injunction against the Municipal Corporation..
