ORDER
Heard both sides.
2. The learned Government Advocate brings to my notice that W.P. (MD)No.29576 of 2025 was filed under a misconception. The writ petitioner's child Nagamani was born on 23.05.1992. However, it was projected before me that she was born on 05.03.1993. It is also now pointed out that the birth was duly registered. However, in all other documents such as Aadhaar card, etc., the date of birth has been shown as 05.03.1993. Probably that was why to bring the birth certificate in alignment with the other entries, the writ petition was filed.
3. The respondent is right in his contention that there cannot be issuance of two birth certificates. However, the respondent is ready to issue one more birth certificate reflecting the correct date of birth, that is, 23.05.1992.
4. I direct the respondent herein to incorporate the name of Nagamani as well as the name of the parents in the said birth certificate to be issued. Liberty is also granted for amending the date of birth entered in the other records. This contempt petition is closed. 18-09-2026 Index: Yes/No Speaking/Non-speaking order Neutral Citation: Yes/No PMU __________
