This is really ancient history being retold here..
Nobody remembers Sackhim or RTIexpert anymore.
The only reason I still post to this group occasionally
is for old times sake and for the RTI book which is now
into its 7rh edn., everyone seems to want a copy.

He was also the member posting as "RTIEXPERT", then he and I had a trivial disagreement over the direction this group was taking, and so he amiably split off the membership to another group "Sackhim". Then Ashish was transferred out to a post where he couldn't devote much time and Sackhim languished. Who knows, maybe Sackhim may be revived again, or we shall see the return of the RTIEXPERT ???

I also find that Ashish.Kr has clearly specified the source(s) of his allegations, unlike VBS.

The alternative which he is now proposing is that you are hand-in-glove with tainted public servants, and actively assist them in promoting their cross allegations by a series of blogs / websites / yahoogroups, and which is in the nature of a business run from offshore to pressurize the investigating agencies located in India..

But I know that he (Ashish) would not as his allegations are based on the information provided by those officers of customs who are looting the precious revenue of nation and are real security threat for Mumbai at least. He is being fed by those customs officers of Mumbai who have joined service illegaly, facing disciplinary enquiries of corruption and are indirectly responsible for the deaths of hundreds of innocenent persons in the serial bomb blasts of 1993.
