My matriculation certificate is having name as "Pravesh Kumar Rai" & the same is mentioned in my Driving License & Passport. Later I moved to Maharashtra state for higher education & my name got changed to "Pravesh Ramchandra Rai" (Father's name as the middle name) & the same is mentioned in PAN card & for other financial purposes.
Even though both names are technically same, do I've to make name change in my Passport from "Pravesh Kumar Rai" to "Pravesh Ramchandra Rai"? OR use ALIAS field in the Passport to reflect both of these names to avoid any conflicts down the line?
Thanks.
