Surrender of passport by post?

Can i surrender Indian passport by post? Do i need to send any additional docs for it?

Also, both my husband and I have to surrender the passports. Is it possible that my husband can surrender both our passports in person without me going in person? Will any additional docs be needed for this?

Re: Indian immigration

First of all, dual citizenship is not allowed by India. So you cannot keep both british and indian passport for the child. You should surrender one of them.
Secondly, if the child has indian passport why do you think he needs visa in india?
