Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal against the Kerala High Court's judgment affirming the State Government's decision regarding the correction of the petitioner's date of birth. The Court held that the High Court correctly understood the limitations of its judicial review over administrative actions, emphasizing that the State Government's discretion in such matters should not be interfered with unless there is a clear violation of principles of natural justice or statutory provisions. The appeal was found to lack merit and was therefore rejected.
