The right term for a notary in India is Notary Public. These are essentially civilians who need to pass a Govt. exam to qualify as Notary Public. Once they qualify they can notarize documents (confirms the persons identity and that he has witnessed the person signing the document). The above
holds good to notaries in US too.

First Class Magistrates are judicial employees in the Court system.

I am not convinced that attestation by First Class Magistrate is the only option given for Birth Affidavits. I have not seen a Packet 4 instructions in
recent times.
