My maternal aunt is 60 years old and her passport is expired.?
No, the police verification is statutory requirement for issuing passport for Indian citizens of any age including senior citizens of more than 60 years. There is nowhere mentioned that the senior citizens and especially woman of more that 60 years will not be committing any criminal offence therefore no police verification should not be done for issuing the fresh passport. The police verification is to check the criminal records as well the residency of the applicant of the passport.
