Central Board Of Secondary Education [CBSE] — Cumbersome procedure for correction of Name in certificates

Address:	Barnala, Punjab
Website:	cbse.nic.in

I wish to bring into your kind notice that getting the name of a student’s parents corrected in CBSE record is a very lengthy, complex and cumbersome process, virtually a torture on the student as well as his parents. In case of my son, for correction in his mother’s name, we submitted affidavits along with verification and recommendation letters from the school principal to CBSE, Panchkula office, but that office refused to correct the mother’s name. The CBSE office termed it a case of change of name and told us to follow its set procedure for this purpose, which in their words, is an year-long process.
It is therefore requested to make CBSE procedure for correction in name simple. Please give weightage to the comments of the Principal of the concerned school, and avoid publications in the Govt. gazette as well as in newspapers in such matters.
