Santosh S/o Gundappa Jamadar, Age.16 yrs, U/g father Gundappa Age.48 yrs vs The Tahasildar, Aland — 1301/2026

Case Summary: Crl. Misc. 1301/2026 The court allowed 16-year-old Santosh's petition for late registration of birth under Section 13(3) of the Registration of Births and Deaths Act 1969. The petitioner's birth on 28-11-2010 at Basavantwadi Village was never registered due to oversight; the court found his father's testimony and supporting documents (non-availability and bonafide certificates) credible and sufficient proof. The Tahasildar was directed to register the birth and issue a birth certificate upon collection of prescribed fees, though the order was clarified as non-conclusive if disputed in future proceedings.
