THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA Writ Petition No. 1429 of 2007 Dated: 25.01.2007 Between: M. Appa Rao, S/o late M. Mahalakshmi, aged about 58 years, R/o Visakhapatnam. .... PETITIONER AND Visakhapatnam Dock labour Board, rep. by its Deputy Chairman, Visakhapatnam. .....RESPONDENT THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE N.V. RAMANA Writ Petition No. 1429 of 2007 Order: The petitioner, who is working as Tindal in the respondent-Visakhapatnam Dock Labour Board, states that even though as per the School Certiﬁcate his correct date of birth is 01.07.1949, the respondent-Board has not properly recorded his date of birth in his service register and they wrongly noted the same as 01.04.1947 instead of 01.07.1949. According to the petitioner, seeking correction of his date of birth, he made a representation, dated 20.07.2006, to the respondent-Board, but no orders thereon have been passed till date. Hence, he filed the present writ petition. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and the learned Standing Counsel for the respondent-Board. Both the counsel agreed to dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the respondent-Board to consider the representation of the petitioner. Since the representation of the petitioner, dated 20.07.2006, seeking correction of his date of birth in his service register, is said to be pending consideration before the respondent-Board, and in view of the agreed stand taken by both the counsel, without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition with the following direction: The respondent-Board is directed to consider the representation of the petitioner, dated 20.07.2006, and pass appropriate orders thereon in accordance with law, expeditiously. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs. ___________________ N.V. RAMANA, J. Date: 25.01.2007 NSR/SJ
