Regarding writing in native language

[pratirajya]

Hi dear friends
 I am new to this forum. Would just like to clarify, if anyone has idea about what happens if you don't write the names in HINDI words or (in your native language) in the Additional family information page. Does writing  only in English letters  will be valid?

It may not be valid, it is flip of a coin.

When our friend completed his application from India we had a discussion about how the name should be written.  A google of "native language" came up with this definition: "The language that the person has spoken from earliest childhood."  As he spoke English at home and at school the application was completed totally in English.  He did not even know what his name would have been in Hindi.  Yet again, hope that the right path was taken.  Cheers.
