Will father’s name mismatch in certificates cause rejection legally?
In my 10th class certificate, my father’s name is written as “S K,” but in my graduation and master’s degree certificates, it is written as “Shiv Kumar.” Will this lead to rejection? If yes, what is the possible solution? Please help me.

If your father’s name is written differently in various certificates (like “S K” in one and “Shiv Kumar” in another), it may create problems during verification. The solution is to make an affidavit declaring both names belong to the same person and publish it in the Gazette. Attach ID proofs like Aadhaar or PAN to support.
