Narinder Kaur vs Punjab & Haryana High Court & Ors

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of the appellant's writ petition seeking to change her date of birth from 26.1.1971 to 9.1.1972, citing Article 283 of the Constitution and Punjab Financial Volume I (Haryana First Amendment) Rules, 2001. The Court found that the appellant failed to demonstrate that she had not taken advantage of the recorded date of birth, and the principle of estoppel applied. The Court affirmed that the notification regarding age correction was discretionary and did not entitle the appellant to a change in her birth date.
