RE: [rti_india] CIC says Govt. notification on CBI exemption not in consonance with RTI

 

dear shri jam, in MP, the Criminal Investigation Department (cid), THE Lokayukta organization and the Economic Offences Wing (EOW) have been exempted by the State Govt. from application of the RTI Act. on my application against this, the SIC upheld my contention but the State Govt. has gone in appeal to the High Court. this matter has been pending for the last almost 2 yrs in the H C at Jabalpur. can the matter be referred to the CIC? arun gurtoo

Subject: [rti_india] CIC says Govt. notification on CBI exemption not in consonance with RTI [1 Attachment]

 
[Attachment(s) from C K Jam included below]
Today (01 July 2011), CIC has passed an order while hearing a Complaint from an accused in the Ghaziabad PF scam.

In a very long order, CIC has ruled that:

1. The Govt. order on exemption of CBI from RTI is not in consonance with the basic provisions of the RTI Act
2. CIC can hear direct Complaints and there is no need to exhaust 19(1) before approaching the commission
3. The gazette notification on CBIs exemption has only a prospective effect - ie cannot be applied to applications/appeals/complaints already in process.

Full order is attached to this post.
