Re: [HumJanenge] Re: [HumJanenge-YG] “Dear RTI Activist, please solve my problem for free”

I find that the format of the complaints and 2nd appeals being
recommended is similar to what is being followed in the high courts
and supreme courts. This is not necessary. Neither is it necessary to
use legalese like 'most respectfully sheweth ', 'Hon'ble Commission'
and so on. Even the consumer forums have started following a similar
format, with index, synopsis, list of dates and so on. This is one of
the reasons a common citizen has to employ a lawyer.

I have filed about 50 complaints and 2nd appeals with the CIC, without
index, synopsis, list of dates and so on. All of been admitted and
heard. The best option is to keep it simple. The person reading it
will be happy if he has to read 2 pages instead of 4.

In an interesting case, the Chandigarh Information Commission find the
rgeistrar of societies who refused to accept my RTI application
because it was not in the 'format' that he wanted.

Welcome Home !! You will find so many of your former brother in arms on this channel. We are also now a disciplined and fighting fit force, and troublemakers (so called RTI activists) are put on KP or latrine duty.

Re: [HumJanenge] Re: [HumJanenge-YG] “Dear RTI Activist, please solve my problem for free”

Dear Mr.Sarbajit Roy,

I had kept myself out of circulation from all our RTI Groups since
last one year mainly due to my inability to sustain the in-fighting Of
course I kept myself away from it. Since last few days I started to
have a peep in my old forums. Things seems cooled down. Do you think
I can sustain and can start to become active now ?.

With warm regards

Re: [HumJanenge] Re: [HumJanenge-YG] “Dear RTI Activist, please solve my problem for free”

There are 2 good places to get your problems solved free.
a) This mailing list
b) http://rtiindia.org  (run by Mr Karira and others)

the "b" option is the preferred one.. Once you have reached some conclusion there, you ought to post the final draft 2nd appeal evolved for the consideration of this group's more advanced members..

Dear Karira ("rtiwanted")

Many thanks for finally getting Mr Krishnaraj Rao to openly admit that he is in the business of filing RTI applications and negotiating deals to "defend" people's assets for a charge. The bonafides of his so-called RTI Users Association are completely exposed by this statement.

Secondly, if we recall his "hunger strike" at Anna's vilage of Ralegaon Siddhi, it is quite obvious that he is only trying to replicate (in his own small way) Anna's own "business" model.

Personally, I condemn such commercial minded people who are a blot on the RTI moivement, the less we interact with them the better. At HumJanenge-Googlegroups we are trying to make this a group for selfless people who freely asisst each other to further the RTI movement for nation building.

    I along with 200 officers have won our case regarding pension at three different benches of AFT,
    The plea has been identical and judgement similar. The judgement was delivered on 16 Sep 2010,1 Nov 2011 and 25 Nov 2011.

    Many thanks for finally getting Mr Krishnaraj Rao to openly admit that he is in the business of filing RTI applications and negotiating deals to "defend" people's assets for a charge. The bonafides of his so-called RTI Users Association are completely exposed by this statement.

    Secondly, if we recall his "hunger strike" at Anna's vilage of Ralegaon Siddhi, it is quite obvious that he is only trying to replicate (in his own small way) Anna's own "business" model.

      forced to spend on ill-conceived giveaways like MGNREGA.

      [HumJanenge] DELHI HIGH COURT TO EXAMINE CBI's EXEMPTION FROM RTI

      HC to examine CBI's exemption from RTI ambit

      Harish V Nair, Hindustan Times
      New Delhi, June 29, 2011

      A month after the Centre approved CBI's request to exempt it from the purview of the Right to Information Act, the Delhi High Court is set to examine its validity.
      Sitab Ali Chaudhary, a lawyer, has filed a PIL, making the Centre, the home and law ministries, CBI and National Investigating Agency answerable to the petition. A bench headed by chief justice Dipak Misra will hear the PIL on July 6.

      The PIL said the RTI Act only gives exemption to organisations dealing with defence, security and national intelligence issues and that the CBI nowhere came within its ambit.


      The Cabinet had earlier this month approved CBI's request to be exempted from the RTI Act. The move had attracted widespread condemnation from activists and civil society representatives.

      In a similar PIL, the Madras High Court has already, on June 25, asked both the Centre and the CBI to explain this exemption. Petitioner and RTI activist S Vijayalakshmi had contended that since the expose of Commonwealth Games and other scams and the Lokpal movement, the Centre has become "jittery and rudderless" in the war on corruption.

      Should the CBI Come Under the Purview of RTI



      JOGINDER SINGH FORMER DIRECTOR CBI



      Keeping it Outside RTI is the Right Move


      The Madras High Court has issued a notice,to the Union government on a public interest litigation seeking to declare a recent notification exempting Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) from the purview of Right to Information Act as ultra vires.The position is,that CBI is not only an investigating agency,but also collects information about the corrupt practices and other violations.Some say that it is a retrograde step and the CBI should not be out of the purview of Right to Information Act.It is due to a mistaken impression,as the Right to Information is not an act to combat corruption and malpractices either in the government or in the society.Each law passed by Parliament has a specific purpose.It would be interesting for the agitators,to find out as to how many cases have been registered against corruption and other laws after getting information under RTI.Investigation of cases is done,as per the procedure laid down in the Criminal Procedure Code,within the parameters prescribed by the Indian Evidence Act.Investigation is never done,in the purview of the pubic or media glare.During investigation,CBI checks and cross-checks the facts stated by the witnesses or the alleged accused,before coming to any conclusion about his guilt or otherwise.It can also involve tests like DNA or referring the matter to Forensic Science Laboratory.Not only during the investigation a full picture of any crime is to be constructed,but also credible evidence gathered to prove that a crime has been committed.The so-called activists confuse between a moral wrong and a legal violation of law.In any case,CBI files a charge-sheet,within normally 60 to 90 days.Once the case goes to the court,each charged person is given a complete set of evidence,including the statement of witnesses,scientific evidence,if any,and other complete papers.So all papers of investigation come under the public domain and anybody can get papers from the court.If any new facts are brought out by the so-called activists,a reinvestigation can always be done.The decision taken to save the CBI from busy-bodies who have nothing to do but seek publicity is a right one.


      NIKHIL DEY RTI ACTIVIST



      Decision to Keep it Out is Unjustified


      The decision to exempt the CBI from the provisions of the RTI Act are completely unjustified.The decision will harm the CBI as well as the RTI Act.In fact,all institutions in the country should be under the purview of the RTI Act.In any case,the exemption for intelligence and security agencies contained under section 24 of the Act cannot apply to an investigating agency.The CBI might carry out some work that requires gathering of intelligence,and it may well investigate many sensitive cases related to security of the state.However,the RTI Act contains adequate safeguards that can protect it from divulging sensitive information.Section 8 of the RTI Act exempts the disclosure of information that would prejudicially affect the security of the state,friendly relations with foreign countries,law and order,safety of an informer,investigation of a crime,etc.There is a fundamental difference between exempting certain classes of information and providing a blanket exemption to the whole agency.By exempting the agency,it is being freed from the standards of transparency and accountability borne out of scrutiny from the citizen.There are many cases the CBI investigates where it needs to work with ordinary citizens in an atmosphere of openness and mutual trust.The CBI enquiry ordered by the Supreme Court of India into corruption in six districts in Orissa is a case in point.In a scenario of poor credibility of investigating agencies,the CBI is still the first one called to investigate matters of grand corruption.As the former director of the CBI who worked under the RTI regime,Vijay Shankar,has said,the RTI will help the CBI perform better and with more credibility.At a time when the government is struggling to show that it can create an effective anti-corruption agency,this move will irreparably damage its own credibility.Finally,this misinterpretation of an intelligence and security agency could open the floodgates to a spate of departments wanting to claim exemption from the RTI.It will be the end of the capacity of the RTI Act to enforce transparency and ensure that accountability is to the people of the country.The government must revoke this decision.

      Thanks a lot, Singh Sahib for this very useful input.
      It means an appeal/ complaint of Shri Subhash Chand Agrawal has wrongly been dismissed by the CIC which was filed before the issue of notification.  For details, read posting made by Shri Agrawal about a fortnight ago.

      The appeals will stand. There is a precedence. My appeal against the NSCS was filed before it was added to the list a few years ago. The NSCS tried to give the same argument. The CIC Wajahat Habibullah ruled that since the appeal was filed before the notification adding NSCS to the list of exempted organisations, the appeal will stand.

      I request for down-loading a copy of gazettee notification exempting CBI, NIA and NIG from the purview of RTI. I searched the same on CBI and DoPT website but could not find. 
       
      Request Mr. C J Karaira, Sarbajit Roy and others for favour.
       
      This will remove doubts about the date of its effectness and status of cases pending before the CIC. .
