Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's direction for the appellant to approach the civil court for correction of his date of birth in service records was appropriate, as the appellant had failed to provide sufficient evidence for the change despite multiple representations since 1981. The Court emphasized the importance of adhering to procedural requirements under the Punjab Civil Service Rules, which allow for such corrections within a specified timeframe. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the High Court's order to seek remedy through civil proceedings.
