JUSTICE VINEY MITTAL HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE H.S.BHALLA PRESENT: Shri Parveen Kumar, Advocate for the petitioner. Viney Mittal,J.(Oral). The petitioner has approached this Court for issuance of directions against the respondent Regional Passport Officer for making correction in the passport with regard to the entry of date of birth of the petitioner. From the perusal of the record, we find that before approaching this Court, the petitioner at no stage ever filed any appropriate application in accordance with rules and has never deposited the requisite fee for the aforesaid purpose. In this view of the matter, we find that the present writ petition filed by the petitioner is wholly pre-mature. Disposed of accordingly. However, the petitioner would be at liberty to seek his remedies, in accordance with rules, at the first instance. (Viney Mittal) Judge August 31,2006 (H.S. Bhalla) KD Judge
