Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court held that the High Court's decision to allow the Writ Petition of N. Sanyasi Rao, declaring his date of birth as March 29, 1953, was contrary to Rule 2-A of the Andhra Pradesh Public Employment (Recording and Alteration of Date of Birth) Rules, 1984. The Court emphasized that the decree obtained by the Judicial Officer regarding his date of birth could not be considered for altering the service record. The appeal by the High Court was allowed, and the order of the Division Bench was set aside.
