THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO WRIT PETITION No : 24861 of 2010 O R D E R: This writ petition has been instituted seeking directions to the respondent – Regional Passport Authority to consider the petitioner’s application for renewal of passport by correcting the entry relating to her date of birth as 30.04.1994 instead of 13.04.1994 in the passport bearing No. F-5368695. Heard Sri A. Krishnam Raju, learned counsel for the writ petitioner. In support of her claim, the petitioner had enclosed a copy of the Birth Certificate issued by the Registrar of Births and Deaths, Municipal Corporation, Rajahmundry, wherein the date of birth of the writ petitioner has been recorded as 30.04.1994. It appears as though that by sheer inadvertence, the entry relating to her date of birth in her passport bearing No. F-5368695 has been recorded as 13.04.1994 instead of 30.04.1994. Such corrections being insignificant and inconsequential, they are required to be carried out upon being satisfied about the genuineness of the claim in that regard. In fact, this very question has been considered in great detail in WP No. 19376 of 2007. By the judgment rendered on 21.9.2007, this Court directed the respondents to receive the application of the petitioner for making the necessary correction of the entries of the date of birth of the writ petitioner. In the facts and circumstances stated above, I direct the respondent to receive the application of the writ petitioner, provided she submits a fresh application, for making the necessary correction of entries of the date of birth of the petitioner from 13.04.1994 to 30.04.1994 and issue the revised or corrected passport within a further period of 30 days from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. With this, the writ petition stands disposed of at the stage of admission, but however, without costs. ---------------------------------- Nooty Ramamohana Rao, J 5th October 2010 Note: Issue CC in a week. ksld .....
