Re: [rti_india] Re: interpreation of Section 2(f) and 2(J)

 

I find the views of Sh. Venkatesh amenable to my own views.

On the contrary I would like to bring to your kind notice relevant
portion of Orissa RTI Rule that says that if INFO is in public domain
then it need not be supplied through 6(1) route and liable to be
rejected outright.

Orissa rules also prescribes a specific form for rejecting RTI
Applications on this ground. See FORM C para (iv) & (viii).

At least one copy of the information placed in the public domain must
be presumed to be available with the concerned public authority. So
what is there in the law to prevent any citizen from seeking it under
S. 6(1)? And where in S 7(1) or S* or S9 does it say that what is
proactively disclosed under S. 4(1)(b) cannot be provided in response
to an application under S6(1).
