Talwinder Singh .....Petitioner versus Unionof India and another .....Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE SURYA KANT. Present : Mr.Sanjeev Kumar Bawa, Advocate, for the petitioner. Ms.Ranjana Shahi, Senior Standing Counsel for UOI. -.- 1. Whether Reporters of Local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? --- Surya Kant, J. (Oral) Notice of motion. Ms.Ranjana Shahi, Advocate, accepts notice on behalf of the respondents. In view of the nature of order which I propose to pass, there is no need to seek any counter reply from the respondents at this stage. The petitioner seeks a mandamus to direct the respondents to correct the name of his parents in his passport No.E-3912517. It is alleged that the petitioner had applied for the afore-stated correction way back and thereafter he also represented respondent No.2 several times followed by a legal notice dated 17.8.2010 (Annexure P-13) but no decision with regard C.W.P.No .18245 of 2010 2 to the same has been taken so far. Having heard learned counsel for the parties and considering the nature of relief sought in this writ petition, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the same with a direction to respondent No.2 to consider the application, if any, moved by the petitioner for correction of his parents' name in the afore-mentioned passport and dispose of the same by passing a speaking order, preferably within a period of six weeks from the date of receiving a certified copy of this order. Ordered accordingly. Dasti. October 07, 2010 (SURYA KANT) Mohinder JUDGE
