Court ne Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) ko do siblings kee daleel ka paalan karane ka order diya, jo Scheduled Caste group ka pratinidhitv kar rahe hain. Yah nirnay right to identify ke mahatv par jor deta hai aur yah bhaarat ke sanvidhaan mein batae gae “right to live” se sambandhit hai.

Court ne CBSE kee chintaon ke javaab mein apana rukh spasht kiya ki surname change se caste mein change aur possible misuse ho sakata hai. Iss baat par vishesh roop se jor diya gaya tha ki pita ke surname ko badalane se petitioners’ kee caste mein parivartan nahin hoga aur na hee yah unhen naee caste ya surname se jude kisee bhee laabh ya privilege ka laabh uthaane kee anumati dega. Court ne samaaj kee seemaon ke bheetar sammaan praapt karane ke lie petitioners’ kee pahachaan mein change karane ke right par jor diya.
Court ke order ke anusaar, CBSE ko pita ke changed surname ko pradarshit karane vaale petitioners ke 10veen aur 12veen kaksha ke certificates mein uchit corrections karane ke lie kaha gaya hai. Importantly, petitioners’ ke pita ne pahale hee ek samaachaar patr ke article mein aur Aadhaar card aur PAN card aur different saarvajanik patron mein surname change ko publicized kiya tha.
