Order
(Order of the Court was made by S.M.Subramaniam J.) The review application filed by the review applicant is absolutely misconceived. The relief sought for is to delete the name of his brother from the Legal Heir Certificate on the ground that the second respondent from one Narayanan failed to maintain the parents.
2. The Review Applicant is the elder brother of the second respondent. If at all senior citizen is not maintained by their children, the aggrieved person may approach the competent authority under the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007. Contrarily, the relief as such sought for to remove the name from the legal heir certificate cannot be considered by the writ court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. This issue has been rightly decided by this Court and there is no error apparent on record. Accordingly, the Review Application stands dismissed. No costs. Consequently, connected miscellaneous petition is closed. (S.M.S.,J.) (M.J.R.,J.) 21-08-2026 Index: Yes/No Speaking/Non-speaking order Neutral Citation: Yes/No KST
