Dear Sir, as per your query,

 

Carry all proof documents:

10th class certificate (shows the incorrect names A T & S T)

Your parents’ ID proofs showing their real names (Aadhar, PAN, etc.)

Affidavit stating the correct names

Newspaper publication with the correction

Explain clearly to the officer:

State that the names on your 10th class certificate had a clerical mistake, but the real names are A B and S (supported by Aadhar/other ID)

Mention that you have an affidavit and newspaper publication as per passport rules

Dear Sir,

 

Verification Officer (Government Officer)
He/she may ask a simple question like:
“Why is your father’s surname different on the school certificate?”
Just explain politely:

“Sir/Ma’am, there was a mistake in my school records. My father’s actual name is A B and mother’s actual name is S, which is supported by the affidavit and newspaper publication.”

That’s sufficient.
