IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE, ANDHRA PRADESH AT HYDERABAD PRESENT : : THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE P. DURGA PRASAD W.P.No.15171 of 2011 Dated: 16-06-2011 Between: K.Ramalaksmi ….Petitioner And The High Court of Andhra Pradesh and another ….Respondents. The Court made the following: THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE P. DURGA PRASAD WRIT PETITION No. 15171 of 2011 Dated: 16-06-2011 ORDER: (per the Hon’ble Sri Justice Goda Raghuram) Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner Sri G.L.Narasimha Rao and Sri Y.Rama Rao, learned counsel for respondents. We have also seen the application filed by the petitioner for recruitment to the post of Junior Civil Judge, pursuant to the notification dated 28.01.2011 (in original). The petitioner’s application was rejected on the ground that she failed to furnish a certificate in proof of the date of birth, as prescribed. The petitioner asserts to have furnished the certificate. We have called for and perused the original application submitted by the petitioner. Though the petitioner has furnished a copy of S.S.C. certificate reflecting her date of birth as 12.05.1978 as part of the material papers in the writ petition; on perusal of the original application filed by the petitioner it is seen that no copy of the S.S.C. certificate, reflecting her date of birth is appended to her application. Since the petitioner failed to enclose a certificate in proof of her date of birth, the rejection of her application suffers from no error warranting interference in the writ petition. The learned counsel for the petitioner would submit that since the petitioner has submitted the community, nativity and date of birth certificate issued by the office of the Tahsildar, Khammam Urban Mandal, dated 22.04.2010, which also certifies that her date of birth is 12.05.1978 that should be considered as sufficient submission of proof of date of birth. This contention is stated to be rejected. The notification clearly specifies that a certificate in proof of birth as per S.S.C. register or any other equivalent examination should be submitted. Certification of the date of birth by the Tahsildar is not one of the certificates, which specified in the notification. For the aforesaid reasons, there are no merits in the writ petition. Accordingly the writ petition is dismissed at the stage of admission. There shall be no order as to costs. _____________________________ JUSTICE GODA RAGHURAM _____________________________ JUSTICE P.
