You can file a fresh application and seek reasons for the same and get the adverse report rectified


Generally when there is a adverse report they don't issue passport.  When you have received the same you can travel

Dear client 

Yes you can travel abroad as you have received your passport.  

This condition can be rectified during the procedure for application of visa. They will ask for police verification report. Then you can contact the police station and get it rectified.

Hello,

if police has filed adverse report and still you have received the passport then you may travel abroad. Enquire at your police station as to what adverse report was made.

You are at liberty to travel abroad 

you can submit application for re verification by regd post to the RPO explaining why police submitted an adverse report.

2) If the RPO finds your reply satisfactory, your letter would be treated as a request to reinitiate the police verification process.

3) Track the delivery. The status would change to 'verification in progress' from 'adverse report'

4) You could track the status of your case online through your file number.

Unless there is any adverse order of a competent authority, no body can stop you from going abroad.

Dear Sir,

The police might have submitted adverse report on your current address because of 2 major reasons:

  1. You have not been at your place during the police verification: This is rare because the police will inform you before he's coming for the verification. Anyways in that case, you can go the police station that you have mentioned during the application and explain your case, requesting for a re-verification. Re-verification is only possible if the police had not yet submitted the hard copies of proofs at the Regional Passport Office. But if you're late, then take the print of acknowledgement from Passport Verification Cell and go the Regional Passport Office and submit your documents. You will fined 500-1000 and a police re-verification will be initiated.
  2. You have been staying at your present mentioned address for less than 12 months: In this case, police verification will be done at places you have stayed at during past 12 months. This is usually common with students applying from their home town and studying or recently completed their studies else where. Again, you'll have to visit the RPO, same process as mentioned above and submit your college bonafide (for students) or other necessary address proofs.

However this can be avoided by offering the police what he needs.

1.  File review application before the immigration office and request for review in your case.  Ask to once again ask for report from the crime branch of the local police.

2.  Typically despite "adverse report", the immigration authorities would allow travel, looking at your various circumstances (medical, educational, business, income tax returns, crime record, etc.... )

Check the status of your passport from the passport portal to verify it is still valid or not.

If you find nothing then meet the passport authority officials.

The authority may revoke the passport on the basis of the adverse police report . if not then you can travel, else not.

You may have to clear the issue pending before the passport office with regard to the observation made by them or else they may inform the immigration department who will stop you from travelling abroad with the defective passport.

You may appear before the concerned authorities and give an affidavit regarding your correct address and may inform them to conduct re-verification through police for the genuineness of your correct address as per application form.

Yes you can travel. Adverse report may be due to wrong information provided to police or for several other reasons.  Only remarks by police can't alter your fundamental rights
