The necessary facts for disposal of the present petition in short
are that the respondents no.1 and 2 by projecting themselves to be the
wife and son of Raghuvar filed an application for mutation of their
names. The petitioner filed his objection and stated that the
respondent no.2 is not the son of Late Raghuvar and has no right to
get his name mutated and the petitioner being the nephew of
Raghuvar has looked after the deceased and out of love and affection
Late Raghuvar has bequeathed his property in favour of the petitioner
by executing a Will. Accordingly, the petitioner filed an application
for determination of the paternity of respondent no.2 by conducting a
DNA test. By order dated 29/8/2016 the Tahsildadr, Basoda, District
Vidisha rejected the application on the ground that the similar
application has already been rejected by order dated 15/6/2016. The
petitioner preferred a revision before the Board of Revenue, which

to order a person to undergo medical test.
Shri Banarsi Dass vs Mrs. Teeku Dutta And Anr on 27 April, 2005
An application was made to subject Teeku Dutta to
DNA test. The High Court held that the trial court
being a testamentary court, the parties should be
left to prove their respective cases on the basis of
the evidence produced during trial, rather than
creating evidence by directing DNA test. When the
matter reached this Court, few decisions of this
Court, particularly, Goutam Kundu were noticed
and it was held that even the result of a genuine
DNA test may not be enough to escape from the
conclusiveness of Section 112 of the Evidence Act
like a case where a husband and wife were living
together during the time of conception. This is
what this Court said: (Banarsi Dass case, SCC pp.
454-55, para 13)
"13. We may remember that Section
112 of the Evidence Act was enacted at a
time when the modern scientific
advancements with deoxyribonucleic acid
(DNA) as well as ribonucleic acid (RNA)
tests were not even in contemplation of the
legislature. The result of a genuine DNA
test is said to be scientifically accurate.
But even that is not enough to escape from
the conclusiveness of Section 112 of the
Evidence Act e.g. if a husband and wife
were living together during the time of
conception but the DNA test revealed that
the child was not born to the husband, the
conclusiveness in law would remain
irrebuttable. This may look hard from the
point of view of the husband who would
be compelled to bear the fatherhood of a
child of which he may be innocent.

Ramkanya Bai vs Bharatram on 22 October, 2009
20. Recently, in Ramkanya Bai v. Bharatram
decided by the Bench of which one of us, R.M.
Lodha, J. was the member, the order of the High
Court directing DNA test of the child at the
instance of the husband was set aside and it was
held that the High Court was not justified in
allowing the application for grant of DNA test of
the child on the ground that there will be
possibility of reunion of the parties if such DNA
test was conducted and if it was found from the
outcome of the DNA test that the son was born
from the wedlock of the parties.
Goutam Kundu vs State Of West Bengal And Anr on 14 May, 1993
(Goutam Kundu case, SCC p. 428, para 26)
"(1) That courts in India cannot order

entertained.
