Applying for government jobs in India, I’m facing a dilemma. My name on my 10th standard marksheet is different from my current name, which is supported by an affidavit. Should I use the name from my 10th marksheet or my current name on the application form?

You should use your current name on the application form. While your 10th marksheet reflects your previous name, the affidavit legally supports your name change. Ensure you attach a copy of the affidavit with your application.

Both the Magistrate and the Sessions Court dismissed his claims. He has now approached the High Court, citing a technical legal provision, and a notice has been issued. The official needs to prepare a defense, beyond the Judge Protection Act, to counter these accusations.

It also has a lock-in period of 24 months, with early termination allowed only by mutual consent within those first two years. He’s now asking me to vacate by May 1st due to a family issue. I’ve explained my reasons for needing to stay until December 2016, but he’s insistent. What should I do?
