HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V.AFZUL PURKAR WRIT PETITION No.33640 of 2011 Dt:- 21.12.2011 Between:- Mummaneni Tejaswi … Petitioner and The Regional Passport Officer … Respondent This Court made the following:- HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V.AFZUL PURKAR WRIT PETITION No.33640 of 2011 ORDER: - Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and Mr.B.Mayur Reddy, learned Standing Counsel appearing for the respondent-authorities. Petitioner applied for correction of the date of birth in his passport as 04.12.1991 in the place of 04.11.1991. The petitioner supports the said request by a document viz., Secondary School Certificate and has applied for the amendment under his representation, dated 22.09.2011. Alleging inaction, the present writ petition is filed. It is evident that the request relates to the change of date of birth within two years. Prima facie the circular of the Ministry of External Affairs, dated 29.10.2007, is required to be followed. The Writ Petition is, therefore, disposed of directing the respondent-authorities to consider the petitioner’s representation referred to above in the light of the circular of the Ministry of External Affairs, dated 29.10.2007, and pass appropriate orders preferably within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________________ VILAS V. AFZULPURKAR, J 21.12.2011 lmv HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE VILAS V.AFZUL PURKAR WRIT PETITION No.33640 of 2011 21.12.2011 lmv
