7. My attention was also invited by learned Counsel for the petitioner to paragraph No.6 of the aforesaid Judgment which reads thus:-

6. On fulfillment of requirements laid down under Appendix Six, the application tendered for effecting change in the entries recorded in school record can be entertained. Respondents were therefore not justified in turning down the application tendered by the petitioner on the ground that the entries recorded in the school record cannot be corrected after pupil has left school. The {6} WP 1621 OF 2018 petition, therefore, deserves to be allowed and Education Officer (Primary), Zilla Parishad, Osmanabad is required to be directed to consider the application tendered by the petitioner to the school authorities and which has been forwarded to the Education Officer (Primary), Zilla Parishad, Osmanabad, in accordance with provisions of Secondary Schools Code, 2006.

The orders passed by respondent Nos. 2 and 3 impugned in this petition, are quashed and set aside and the matter is remitted back to the Education Officer (Primary), Zilla Parishad, Osmanabad for reconsideration. The Education Officer (Primary), Zilla Parishad, Osmanabad shall proceed to take decision on the application in accordance with provisions of Secondary Schools Code, 2006 and the observations made in this judgment. The petitioner shall cause appearance before the Education Officer (Primary), Zilla Parishad, Osmanabad on 29th October, 2012 and as such, no separate notice requiring petitioner's appearance before respondent No. 3 shall be essential. Respondent No. 3 shall decide the application, as expeditiously as possible, preferably within eight (8) weeks from date of appearance of petitioner before him. Rule is accordingly made absolute. No order as to costs.

                                       {7}               WP 1621 OF 2018
