Question

I hv lost my passport and i don't have any details with me, now I want to make a new one what can i do?

Answer 1

firstly...... you must   immediately lodge an FIR in the nearest police station, mentioning atleast  the approximate date that  was issued....and expiry would be 10 years later (unless its a tatkal passport). this will also prevent misuse of your passport by someone else. I think you also have to give it in one national daily....please confirm with the police station.

now you must do some digging in the passport office. see the section officer, submit a copy of the FIR,  and request in writing to give them the details of your passport. if they give it to you.....you can apply under the  head for "reissue of new passport incase of lost or damaged passport".

if not....then make a fresh passport application.....with address proof, qualification, proof of date of birth and submit along with the FIR so that the passport office in your area does not  object  to your previously  holding a passport (as it will be present in their records)

new passport will be issued in a months time.
