In case the date of birth of the petitioner has been duly corrected by the B.D.O. in the Pariwar Register in terms of the mandate of Rule 21 of the H.P. Panchayati Raj (General) Rules, there is no reason why the third respondent shall not effect such corrections in the service records. Therefore, this writ petition is disposed of directing the third respondent to make necessary corrections in the service records in case the petitioner produces a certificate to the effect that the entry in the original pariwar register has been duly corrected by the B.D.O. in terms of the mandate of Rule 21 of the H.P. Panchayati Raj (General) Rules. The pending application(s), if any, also stands disposed of. Authenticated copy. (Justice Kurian Joseph), Chief Justice. (Justice Rajiv Sharma), Judge.
