This writ petition is filed for a writ of Mandamus declaring the inaction of the 2nd respondent in taking steps to correct the date of birth of the petitioner in his service record as 04.01.1963 instead of 30.12.1959, inspite of the written representation dated 01.01.2013, submitted by the petitioner duly enclosing the school records followed by repeated visits, as illegal and arbitrary and for a consequential direction to the respondents to correct the date of birth of the petitioner in his service records as 04.01.1963 instead of 30.12.1959.

Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and Sri J.Srinivas Rao, learned Standing Counsel for respondents. Since the representation of the petitioner dated 01.01.2013 is stated to be pending before the 2nd respondent, without expressing any opinion on merits, the writ petition is disposed of directing the respondents to dispose of the representation of the petitioner, in accordance with law.

With the above direction, the writ petition is disposed of. No order as to costs.

As a sequel thereto, miscellaneous petitions, if any, pending in the writ petition, shall stand closed. _____________________________ A.RAJASHEKER REDDY, J 27.10.2017 t k.
