Hello,
you will have to make a same name affidavit and then submit it to the police. If they don’t do the same then move to the High Court.

Passport verification issue
I had a passport. Then i changed my name. I then applied for re-issue of passport. Police verification came to my nearest police station but the police are not doing my verification. They said my educational certificates has my old name and my other documents has my new name like bank passbook , aadhar card, pan card, etc so they said they will not do. What should I do? Please contact me immediately through email. email - [deleted]

You can file an application to the concerned police station with the said details. Also inform the passport office for the same. If not done you need approach high court
What is the process for reaching out high court or supreme court? What should I say them? I will have to ask for permission certificate for re-issue of my passport for my name name? If yes, how many days will it take to get one? According to passport seva rules. I cannot apply for re- issue of passport for my new name in tatkaal if I had passport before but now that my old passport is cancelled. can I apply for tatkaal?

1. For change of name one has to make affidavit before the Magistrate and once it is done the anomaly on change of name can be cured.
2. So on submitting the necessary papers the authority is bound to re issue passport and if it refuses to do so then you can file writ petition in high court.
How did you change your name ?
if it was done by notification in official gazette and 2 local newspapers then police verification should be done as it explains change in name
3) furnish to police gazette notification of change of name
If your application for passport is rejected file writ petition in HC against RPO . Mention police are refusing to do police verification on account of change of name and hence passport application rejected
See you can produce the gazettee notification of name change along with affidavit they have to reissue it if they fail you can file.writ before hc to seek direction.
you need execute an affidavit on a non judicial stamp paper giving the reason for the change of name.
The said affidavit has to be filed before the Passport authorities with necessary application for change of particulars..
You can file a petition before the high court seeking direction.
See in High court it may take some time you can approach the high court advocate to file petition on your behalf.
in case if application rejected after above procedure then you can file a writ petition before high court.
You have to first make declaration in the Gazette of state or central government to change in name and than apply for correct passport which you have on all rest of the documents.
You can file writ petition ans state that they are not granting the same time you in illegal manner
Police have should do your clear verification if you have changed your name by following the official process and by gazette notification.
If they still refuse for clear verification you should give them an affidavit of Name declaration. They will do it after your affidavit.
You can change your name by following the change of name process by first preparing an affidavit and then publish it in a local newspaper, if need be then you can get it published in the government gazette publication also, this will enable police to give a certificate about your verification report.
Your old passport will not be cancelled but its validity may have expired.
You cannot approach high court for this purpose.
You may have to follow the change of name process in order to get your name changed in the passport.
