Passport Renewal with 498a case :
If you want to do your Passport renewal
while 498a, DVC etc. are pending...
Step 1: Apply for your passport renewal to passport authority.
They will put it in hold & send letter to you asking to submit NOC from court then only they can do renewal.
Step 2:
You file petition in Magistrate court where
ever your 498-A is running, ask to give NOC for your passport renewal.
Reasons: Your office asked you to submit
passport, you need to travel abroad on office work, otherwise you might Loose job.
Hence there is need of passport. Ask for 10 years validity, and mention you
won't travel abroad without court permission & you will attend for court
proceedings.
After hearing arguments from you/your advocate, judge will pass the order. Then Court will send NOC by post to your address.
Step 3:
Then take this NOC letter to passport
office & submit to them.
That's it they will issue your new
passport.
With just Rs.200 (two hundred rupees) u can
get this done. No need to go high court or spend Rs. 50,000 as some Advocates
say.
The above process worked recently. Within 1&1/2 month of filing petition for passport renewal, court orders were passed.
