File writ petition in HC to direct CBSE board to rectify the mistake in your father name in your Xstd certicate school leaving certificate

2) enclose copy of correspondence exchanged with school and board

3) also enclose father Aadhar card or other documents which reflect father correct name

4) contact a local lawyer

The application for correction in date of birth duly forwarded by the Head of school along with documents mentioned in byelaws 69.2(iii) shall be entertained by the Board only within one year of the date of declaration of result. No correction whatsoever shall be made on application submitted after the said period of one year. So corrections in your Father’s/Mother’s Name can only be made within 1 year of Date of Declaration of the Respective result.

In your case the time limit is over so file a writ petition before high court for getting a direction to correct the mistake in your father name in 10th School certificate.

The CBSE authorities may not cooperate in this aspect and its been the same tale with plenty of such innocent victims like you.

This is a reflection of the careless, irresponsible and lethargy nature of work done by the staff while recording the data of the candidates in the records.

The authorities do not apply their mind and they will not be sympathetic to any appeal by the students or parents.

Instead of begging those people, you may prepare an affidavit stating that the name of father found in the 10th certificate and that of the her educational certificates are one the same and belong to the same person. This affidavit will support your claim in case of any problem in future in this regard.
