My name was legally changed after college, and I updated my passport, PAN card, and driving license accordingly. But now, the RTO in Bangalore won’t issue me a Yellow Badge for a commercial driver’s license because my name on my 10th standard marksheet is different. Even the university won’t change the name on my marksheet. Since I used the same affidavit to change my passport and PAN card, why won’t they accept it now? Can I legally challenge this decision or send a notice to the RTO? Or are they right to refuse my affidavit?

While the RTO’s requirement for a 10th standard marksheet matching your current name is understandable, their refusal to accept the affidavit used for changing your passport and PAN card might be unjustified. You can legally challenge this decision or send a notice to the RTO, citing the affidavit as evidence of your name change. You can also explore legal options for rectifying the discrepancy in your 10th standard marksheet.

I gave a blank cheque to a private college for a B.A.M.S degree course, with instructions to fill it after 10 days. They immediately used it and the cheque bounced. The college now insists I pay the fees via RTGS/NEFT within 10 days. They admit they wrongly presented the cheque to the bank. I initially transferred Rs. 50,000 to see if the funds would be credited, but the college now claims the seat has been sold to someone else for a higher donation and refuses to admit me. What legal recourse do I have?

My family and I are facing a major issue due to a plastic bag manufacturing factory built on land allotted for a handloom shed in our colony. We’ve already filed complaints with the State Pollution Board, Municipal Corporation, District Town Planner, Area Fire Brigade, and the District Commissioner’s grievance cell. However, the District Commissioner’s office dismissed our complaint, claiming the land was allocated for a “green industry” – a handloom shed. But the allotted shed was demolished, and the factory owner built his unit in the basement near our homes, claiming it’s a godown. The Pollution Control Board, after investigating, initiated sealing the factory, but due to political pressure, the action was halted. What steps can we take now to ensure the factory is shut down and our health is protected?
