Case Law Details
Vipin Sehrawat Vs Deputy Commissioner SDMC (Delhi High Court)
Petitioner is holding two birth certificates with two different dates of birth.
One individual cannot be permitted to hold two birth certificates containing two different birth dates as the identity of a person is established not only by his name and parentage but also by his date of birth.
Continuance of two birth certificates containing two different dates of birth would imply that one individual can pose as two different individuals; which error cannot be permitted to perpetuate.
Accordingly, it is also in public interest that one of the birth certificates be cancelled. Further, interest of justice also demands that one of the two certificates be cancelled.
