PM Narendra Modi announced women need not change their names on passport after marriage.
Married women, who take their husband's name, no longer need to go through the tedious name-changing process for passport.
He added women don't have to submit marriage/divorce certificate and are free to use their father/mother's name in passport.
He was speaking at Indian Merchant Chamber's Ladies Wing Golden Jubilee event.
That's I called Equality.
Love you PMO India :luv
