The petitioner was a government servant of age 51 years wanting her date of birth in her passport to be rectified as per the birth certificate. The Regional Passport Officer did not even take her case and argued that she would be run by first rectifying the service records on her date of birth and then she would rectify the passport thereafter. The Court ordered the writ petition to be granted and the passport office was to give the application, consideration without direction that the services record be filled.
