DATED DATED DATED : 27th March, 2008. : 27th March, 2008. : 27th March, 2008. P.C. P.C. P.C. 1. Heard the learned counsel for the parties. 2. The petitioner has filed this petition impugning the decision of the Maharashtra Administrative Tribunal dismissing her 2 application for correction of her date of birth which was made on the verge of her retirement. The petitioner claims that her correct date of birth is 12.12.1955 whereas at the time of joining the service with the respondent her date of birth has been wrongly recorded as 10.06.1950. The MAT has rejected her application by examining all the prose and cons of the matter. In addition to it, the MAT has observed that as per the rules and regulations governing the service condition of the applicant requires that she should have sought correction of her date of birth within a period of five years from the date of her joining service. The MAT has further gone to assess that if the date of birth, which is now claimed by the petitioner, is taken into consideration, then the petitioner would be in first standard in school at the age of four years. 3. We, therefore, do not find any error or illegality in the decision of MAT. The petition stands dismissed. [J.N.PATEL, [J.N.PATEL, [J.N.PATEL, J] J] J] 3 [S.S.SHINDE, [S.S.SHINDE, [S.S.SHINDE, J] J] J]
