Passport Office Chandigarh — deletion of spouse name

Address:

147001

Dear sir,

I have applied for deleting name from my passport of my previous wife with whom i have taken divorce through court decree. I have deposited fees and taken appointment. My passport is valid till 2024. Now i am told to complete all formalities which are required for issue of fresh passport. I fail to understand why it is required when my passport is valid upto 2024. Noc from the employer will take 2 months but i want deletion of spouse name urgently. I am ready to submit police report if it is at all required. My efforts to meet passport office were frustrated by security staff and i felt frustrated. Please look into the matter and solve my problem as my next appointment is for 7 th jan 2019

Regards
.
