IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA CWJC No.789 of 2010 1. ROHANI NANDAN SINGH S/O LATE BHOLA SINGH ASSISTANT TEACHER SURAJ NARAIN SINGH DEONARAIN GURMAITA BALAK HIGH SCHOOL AT & DISTT.- MADHUBANI Versus 1. THE STATE OF BIHAR THROUGH PRINCIPAL SECRETARY HUMAN RESOURCES DEVELOPENT DEPARTMENT, GOVT. OF BIHAR, PATNA 2. THE DIRECTOR, SECONDARY EDUCATION HUMAN RESOURCES DEPARTMENT, GOVT. OF BIHAR, PATNA 3. THE DISTRICT EDUCATION OFFICER MADHUBANI 4. HEAD MASTER, SURAJ NARAIN SINGH DEONARAIN GURMAITA BALAK HIGH SCHOOL, MADHUBANI ----------- 2 18.5.2010 Petitioner’s prayer is for a direction to the respondent to consider his date of birth as 16.8.1952 instead of 11.2.1950 and not to persuade him to retire in the month of February, 2010. It seems that already petitioner has retired in the month of February, 2010. However, the relief which has been prayed by the petitioner cannot be considered, at this juncture, unless there is any correction/change in the matriculation certificate of the petitioner, wherein his date of birth has been recorded as 11.2.1950. The date of birth recorded in the matriculation certificate is deemed to be taken as proof in the matter of date of birth. The remedy of the petitioner lies before the Bihar School Examination Board. He can take steps for correction/modification of his date of birth in the 2 matriculation certificate. Once it is done then only the petitioner can ask for any such relief, as prayed in this writ application. The writ application stands disposed off. (Mridula Mishra,J.) A.Kumar
