1 wp 6011.08 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY BENCH AT AURANGABAD WRIT PETITION NO. 6011 OF 2008 Subhash Sambharao Deokar .. Petitioner Versus 1. The State of Maharashtra and others .. Respondents Shri H. V. Patil, Advocate for the Petitioner. Shri D. R. Kale, Advocate for the Respondents/State. CORAM : SMT. NISHITA MHATRE & S. S. SHINDE, JJ. DATE : 18TH MARCH, 2011. PER COURT : . The petitioner has filed the present petition seeking correction in his date of birth in the record maintained by the respondents. According to the petitioner, he realised that he was born on 25.02.1966, when he applied to the first school he attended i. e. Zilla Parishad Primary School, Branch No. 1 at Hingoli for his record with the school in order to submit it before the Scrutiny Committee which was to decide the validity of his caste claim. According to the petitioner the date of birth which 2 wp 6011.08 was recorded in all subsequent records is not correct. The date of birth recorded in all other schools attended by the petitioner as well as the polytechnic diploma course and all other educational activities undertaken by the petitioner besides the records maintained by the respondents is 25.02.1962. Admittedly, the petitioner did not bother to have his date of birth changed within the period specified in the Rules after he was appointed in the police department. In our opinion, no case for interference is made out. Petition is rejected. [S. S. SHINDE, J.] [SMT. NISHITA MHATRE, J.] bsb/March 11
