“The name, father's name, date of birth the institution in which the student has studied and such other particulars as are incorporated in the certificate are based on the information made available by the contents of the application form which is scrutinized, verified and forwarded by the institution, in which the student has studied. All these particulars carry with them a prima facie guarantee of correctness inasmuch as such particulars in the record of the institution are furnished by the applicant himself and the applicant himself fills in and subscribes to the application seeking entry in the examination conducted by the Board. It is difficult to assume that such particulars would be false or incorrect so far as the applicant is concerned. At the same time, this procedure becomes a part of the process of 'conducting examinations and publishing the results' as also the 'conditions under which the candidates shall be admitted to the examinations of the Board' the two subjects covered by clauses (d) and (g) of sub-Section (2) of Section 24 of the Act, apart from the generality of the power conferred by sub-Section (1) of Section 24. It cannot, therefore, be contended that the matter relating to certificates and as to correction of any entry made therein does not fall within the purview of the power to make Regulations conferred on the Board.
