Enquire at the Indian High Commission what they can help with (I think part of the process needs doing in India before departure)

Note: Please note that all original documents/copies requiring attestation or Apostille should be first authenticated by the designated authorities of the State/Union Territory from where the document has been issued. In case of personal documents, Home/General Administration Department of the concerned State Government/Union Territory are the designated authorities. The same certificate/document should then be apostilled /attested by Ministry of External Affairs, New Delhi or its branch offices as stated above before submission to High Commission for attestation.
Details of Regional Authentication Centres (RACs) in the States/Union Territories from where the documents should first be authenticated and for procedure for attestation in India, please see http://mea.gov.in/apostille.htm.
In case attested true copy of the document is required, original need to be presented for scrutiny.
In case the document originated from any Malaysian Institution, prior attestation from Malaysian Foreign Affairs, Wisma Putra is required. All Malay documents are required to be translated in to English and then certified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

It looks like a long procecure to get birth certificate and marriage certificate attested here in India. Today I submitted an application for document attestation to Home dept, Jharkhand state. They asked me to submit an application with two copies of birth and marriage certificate. They advised me to check with them after a week as the application would be forwarded to the regional office from where they were issued for verification. Once done they would then attest the original documents.

Once this process gets over, I would then get the documents attested from Ministry of External Affairs, India.

I will update the forum on progress. Thanks for help.
