THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 01/12/2006, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR,J. -------------------------------------------- W.P.C.NO. 29494 OF 2006 -------------------------------------------- Dated this the 1st day of December, 2006 JUDGMENT Petitioner is challenging Exts. P3 and P5 orders issued by the fourth resposndent declining to correct petitioner's name in the school records on account of delay in making the application beyond two years from the date of issue of school certificate. I have heard counsel for the petitioner, standing counsel for the University and counsel appearing for the fourth respondent. It is seen from the records produced by the petitioner, such as provisional degree certificate, transfer certificate and conduct certificate issued by the school and all other records except the marklist and certificate issued by the CBSE that petitioner's name is Sreepriya, A. written continuously. However, it is seen from Exts. P6 certificate and P7 marklist issued by the CBSE that space is left in between Sree and Priya. Obviously petitioner cannot have different names in different records. Therefore correction has to be carried out in the school records to be consistent with all other records, including part of school records such as TC based on which 2 petitioner was given admission in the College. W.P. is therefore allowed quashing Exts. P3 and P5 with direction to second respondent to make correction of petitioner's name as Sreepriya, A. in the school records and issue certificate to that effect to the petitioner within two weeks from the date of production of a copy of this judgment by the petitioner. Fourth respondent will issue consequential orders carrying out correction in the certificate and marklist issued by the CBSE within two weeks from the date of production of certificate from the second respondent by the petitioner. University will issue original Degree Certificate in the petitioner's name as Sreepriya, A. without any space in between Sree and Priya. (C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR) Judge 3
