THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO WRIT PETITION No : 28647 of 2010 19th November 2010. Between: Mohmed Abdul Khursheed .. Petitioner And Union of India, rep. By the Regional Passport Officer, Secunderabad. .. Respondent THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO WRIT PETITION No : 28647 of 2010 O R D E R: This writ petition has been instituted seeking directions to the respondent – Regional Passport Authority to correct the entry relating to the place of birth of the petitioner as Karimnagar instead of Hyderabad in the passport bearing No. B-5508435. Heard Sri Bajrang Singh Thakur, learned counsel for the writ petitioner and Ms.S.Nanda, learned Standing Counsel for the respondent-Authority. In support of his claim, the petitioner had, in fact, enclosed a copy of the transfer certificate issued by Kakatiya University, Warangal and also the birth certificate issued by Municipal Corporation of Karimnagar, Andhra Pradesh, wherein the place of birth of the writ petitioner has been recorded as Karimnagar. It appears as though that by sheer inadvertence, the entry relating to his place of birth in his passport bearing No. B-5508435 has been recorded as Hyderabad instead of Karimnagar. Such corrections being insignificant and inconsequential, they are required to be carried out upon being satisfied about the genuineness of the claim in that regard. In fact, this very question has been considered in great detail in WP No. 19376 of 2007. By the judgment rendered on 21.9.2007, this Court directed the respondents to receive the application of the petitioner for making the necessary correction of the entries of the place of birth of the writ petitioner. In the facts and circumstances stated above, I direct the respondent to receive the application of the writ petitioner for making the necessary correction of entries of the place of birth of the petitioner from Hyderabad to Karimnagar and issue the revised or corrected passport within a further period of 30 days from the date of receipt of this order. With this, the writ petition stands disposed of at the stage of admission, but however, without costs. ---------------------------------- Nooty Ramamohana Rao, J 19th November, 2010 tnb THE HON'BLE SRI JUSTICE NOOTY RAMAMOHANA RAO WRIT PETITION No : 28647 of 2010 19th November, 2010.
