01.01.2019 and consequently direct the first respondent to correct the petitioner's father name as Shaik Fazul Rahiman instead of Fazal Rehmaan in the petitioner's 10th standard mark certificate.

2. Heard both sides.

3. It is stated that the petitioner's son passed 10th standard in the year 2018 conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education. In the 10th standard mark certificate, the name of the father, namely, the petitioner, was wrongly mentioned as Fazal Rehmaan instead of Shaik Fazul Rahiman. Hence, he has sought for correction in the 10th Mark Sheet. In this regard, The petitioner has made a request to the second respondent, who in turn, has forwarded the same to the first respondent. The first respondent vide impugned order dated 01.01.2019 has rejected the request.

4. As it is only the name of the father of the student, which was originally given as Fazal Rehmaan and now he wants to add Shaik Fazul Rahiman, the same can be granted. The change of name of the father by adding only the name "Shaik" will not cause any prejudice or loss to the first respondent board. Hence, the first respondent is directed to effect change as requested by the petitioner and issue a fresh 10th standard mark certificate within a period of six weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order. The petitioner is directed to surrender the original certificate along with the necessary fees for change of name.

5. With the above directions, the writ petition is disposed of. No costs.
