Case Summary: Durgappa S/O Chandappa v. The Tahasildar Sedam (Crl.Misc.No.1825/2025) The court granted the petitioner's petition under Section 13(3) of the Registration of Birth and Deaths Act, 1969, directing the Tahasildar to register the death of his father, Chandrappa S/o Basappa, who died on 22-09-1999 but was never entered in the death register due to bonafide mistake. The court found the petitioner's evidence credible, supported by Aadhar card and Anganawadi death declaration certificate, and noted no opposition after public notice. The Tahasildar was ordered to make the death entry upon collection of applicable late fees, with the caveat that any future disputes about the death date or succession must be proven in civil court.
