1. The prayer in this writ petition is for the issuance of a Community Certificate. The petitioners father belongs to the Adi Dravida community and his mother belongs to Christianity. The date of birth of the petitioner is 31.5.1992, as reflected from his school records. While he was a minor, the petitioner filed an application on 27.6.2009 before the authority concerned for issuance of a community certificate to the effect that he belongs to Adi Dravida Christian Community and such a certificate was also issued by the authority concerned. However, when such application was made, no declaration was given by his parents as to which religion the petitioner professes. Later on, after coming to know that his father professes Hinduism and his mother, though belonging to Christianity, also professes Hinduism, the petitioner made another application to the respondent on 2.12.2009 for grant of community certificate, which was rejected solely on the ground that the petitioner was earlier issued with a community certificate certifying him to be a Adi Dravida converted Christian, which is a Backward Class. The said order is put in issue in this writ pe
