Please report these details to the Ministry of External Affairs. The passport website of the Ministry has a system by which public grievances can be filed. Whenever an official says any such thing, please ask him his name and designation, so that you can file a complaint. Also ask him to provide details of why he is asking all these details. Unless you are persistent, and firm, people will always treat you in a patronising fashion in the government.
