The reference to the Bye-Law which deals with change and correction in name is made in paragraph 4 which is reproduced as follows: "69. 1 Changes and Correction in Name (i) Correction in name means correction in spelling errors, factual errors, typographical errors in candidate s name/surname, Father s Name/mother s name to make it consistent with what is given in the school record.

" ( 5 ) THE petition admittedly has qualified for change in the name in terms of the Bye-Law as stated above. It is specifically staled in sub-para (iv) that the application regarding change in name/surname will be considered whereas such changes have been permitted by Court by Law and notified in a Government Gazette. The change of name from Deepika Jain to Deepika Shukia has since been incorporated in the Gazette Notification dated 5th October, 1996 which reads as under:- "i SUDESH KUMAR SHUKLA S/o Late Shri VIDU RAM employed as Teacher in the Guru Harkrishan Public School. Nanak Piao, Delhi residing at C-37, D. T. C. Colony, Rana Partap Bagh, Delhi-110009, have changed the name of minor daughter DEEPIKA JAIN aged 17 years and she shall hereafter be known as DEEPIKA SHUKLA. It is certified that I have complied with other legal requirement in this onnection. " ( 6 ) THE learned counsel for the respondent only contends that the change in the name has to be protective with effect from the date of application and cannot be entered in the records retrospectively. The appoint is merely academic as the petitioner has since changed her name which is incorporated in the official notification. The respondent shall accordingly record the change in the official records the name which the petitioner has subsequently shall be known as Deepika Shukla. This will obviously suffice the need of the petitioner and no further proceedings are necessary in this writ petition, the same is allowed in the above terms. There will be no order as to costs.
