Will father's name mismatch affect my document renewal process?

All my documents—Indian Passport, PAN Card, Aadhaar Card, and Birth Certificate—list my father’s name as "Harikrushnadas," while his passport shows his name as "Harikrushna." Will this name mismatch cause problems during the renewal of my documents?

If your documents show your father’s name as Harikrushnadas and his passport shows Harikrushna, you can fix this with an affidavit stating both names are the same person. Then publish this in newspapers and get it officially recorded in the state gazette. This process ensures smooth renewal of your documents without rejection.
