RAM KISHUN MAHTO Vs. J.S.E.B.THROUGH ITS SECRETARY

JUDGEMENT

(1.) HEARD the counsel for the parties.

(2.) IN this writ application the petitioner prayed for issuance of appropriate direction upon the respondent not to change or alter the date of birth of the petitioner which has been recorded in the service record merely on the ground of assessment of age of the petitioner by the Medical Board.

(3.) A very cryptic and vague counter affidavit has been filed by the Board wherein it is stated that there appear some manipulation and overwriting in the service record of the petitioner particularly the date of birth which was taken note by the committee of the Board and in such cases direction was issued for examination of the employees by Medical Board. Consequently the date of birth of the petitioner was assessed as 11.9.1944.
