Yes, you can change your name on your birth certificate in India. You need to file an application with the Registrar of Births and Deaths in the relevant jurisdiction, providing proof of your identity, address, and the desired name change.

My husband’s will clearly states that all his property, movable and immovable, will be mine after his passing. It specifically mentions that our daughters won’t inherit anything, and I’ll be the sole owner of our house in Chandigarh. However, the will also mentions that whatever remains after my death should be divided equally among our daughters. Following my husband’s demise, I applied to transfer the property in my name at the Chandigarh state office, but they registered it with a “lifetime interest.” When I questioned this, they said it was the correct procedure. Now, I’m unable to sell the property. What should I do? Should I seek a legal interpretation of the will or is there a quicker solution?
