1. When i put my laptop to sleep, it automatically wake up and enters a random wrong password very quickly on its own.
2. All the letters i type, the number 9 gets randomly typed.
3. The number 9 key on the numpad is not working.
4. When i open the lid of the laptop to wake from sleep mode, again a wrong password automatically enters.

OS- Windows 10 Home.
Laptop- Asus X541U, Intel core i3.

PLEASE SUGGEST ANY HELP, I AM REALLY CONCERNED!
 
This is usually a hardware issue. You might need to replace a keyboard. If, as per Colif instructions, the issue persist in a clean boot environment, you can try to reattach the keayboard - some connection issue is possible. But I have replaced too many of them in our repair shop to know that in 99% cases it's faulty keayboard, simple as that.

I strongly advise against disassembling the laptop and replacing the keyboard on your own unless you are confident in what you do and have some experience with PCs and laptops.
