Respondent The Court made the following: HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G. BHAVANI PRASAD CIVIL REVISION PETITION No.4375 of 2010 ORDER: Heard Sri M.S.R. Chandra Murthy, learned counsel for the revision petitioner and Sri N.A. Ramachandra Murthy, learned Assistant Government Pleader for the respondent. 2. The Civil Revision Petition is directed against the Endorsement, dated 08.09.2010, passed in No.RK/2010 CC/2235/75-ATR, on the file of the Land Reforms Tribunal/Revenue Divisional Officer, at Narayanapet, Mahabubnagar District, refusing to issue certified copies of Exs.A- 1 to A-8 as Exs.A-1 to A-7 were certified copies issued by the District and Sessions Court, Mahabubnagar, and the Tahsildar concerned, while Ex.A-8 is a birth certificate issued by the Civil Assistant Surgeon. 3. The revision petitioner contends that he is entitled to issuance of certified copies of the documents marked as Exs.A-1 to A-8 in the land ceiling proceedings before the primary Tribunal, as they were necessary for submission before the Tahsildar, Gadwal, for obtaining his birth certificate about his being born on 02.02.1956 at the Civil Hospital, Gadwal. 4. The provisions of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, referred to by the learned counsel for the revision petitioner do not appear to contain any prohibition against the issuance of certified copies of certified copies by the Judicial or Quasi Judicial Tribunal or against issuance of the certified copy of a certificate when the certified copies or the certificate were admitted into evidence during the enquiry by the Judicial or Quasi Judicial Tribunal. The documents are stated to be essentially required for obtaining a birth certificate and the revision petitioner need not be disadvantaged in his attempt to pursue his civil rights for any technical reasons. 5. Therefore, the Endorsement, dated 08.09.2010, passed in No.RK/2010 CC/2235/75-ATR, on the file of the Land Reforms Tribunal/Revenue Divisional Officer, at Narayanapet, Mahabubnagar District, refusing to issue certified copies of the documents is set aside and the Revenue Divisional Officer, Narayanapet, Mahabubnagar District, shall consider issuance of certified copies of Exs.A-1 to A-8 on compliance with the required formalities by the revision petitioner. The Civil Revision Petition is ordered, accordingly, without costs. _____________________ G. BHAVANI PRASAD, J Date: 27th July, 2011 KL HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE G.
