Neutral Citation No. - 2025:AHC-LKO:38918 Court No. - 7 Case :- WRIT - C No. - 6350 of 2025 Petitioner :- Tanay Singh Minor Thru. His Father Balveer Singh Respondent :- State Of U.P. Thru. Prin. Secy. / President Parbandh Samiti Lko And 3 Others Counsel for Petitioner :- Rajesh Kumar Pandey Counsel for Respondent :- C.S.C. Hon'ble Pankaj Bhatia,J. 1. Heard learned counsel for the petitioner, learned Standing Counsel for the State respondent, Sri Ashutosh Shahi, learned counsel for the respondent no. 3 and perused the record. 2. The contention of the counsel for the petitioner is that for participation in the competitive sports, it is incumbent that the petitioner, who is a minor, undergoes an age determination test. It is argued that in the age determination test, the age was determined as 13 years, which is wrong and despite the fact that in all other records, the age of the petitioner is 10 years, he has been shown to be aged about 13 years. It is argued that the respondent no. 4 should conduct a re-test on the child in question. 3. Considering the said submission, the present petition is disposed of permitting the petitioner to approach the respondent no. 4 along with the child. The respondent no. 4 shall conduct a fresh age determination test and shall issue a certificate accordingly, however, the earlier certificate issued shall also be taken into consideration by the respondent no. 4. The re-test as directed above shall be done within a period of two days from the petitioner approaching the respondent no. 4.
