Allahabad High Court rules juvenile conviction cannot bar passport issuance

In a June 2026 ruling, the Allahabad High Court held that a conviction recorded during minority cannot automatically prevent a passport. The court stressed rehabilitation and reform as central to juvenile justice, noting that mistakes made in childhood should not create a lifelong stigma. Citing the Juvenile Justice Act, 2000, the court indicated that records of a juvenile offence should not permanently bar travel, although ongoing proceedings may still be considered in passport decisions. The judgment safeguards the mobility rights of individuals who were convicted as juveniles and signals a shift toward a fresh-start approach in travel documentation for young offenders.
  • Ruling issued in June 2026 by Allahabad High Court
  • Juvenile conviction not an automatic passport bar
  • Emphasis on rehabilitation and fresh start
  • Reference to Juvenile Justice Act, 2000
  • Protects mobility rights of juveniles convicted earlier
