To:
The Central Information Commission, by
CC: Secretary DoPT (for Information)
I trust that by now you would have diligently enquired into my public grievance regarding the manner of selection of architect ("Ms. Renu Khanna and Associates") for design and supervision of construction of the CIC's new building.
I would be highly obliged of the results of your inquiry are expeditiously communicated to me (or preferably placed in public domain on CIC's website) considering
(a) the large sums of public money involved in this project, and
(b) my regular complaints made that this particular architect"Ms. Renu Khanna and Associates" was only selected in a dubious way to facilitate gross corruption by the contractor M/s NBCC India and so as to line the pockets of members (past and present) of the Central Information Commission - especially the Chief Information Commissioners - and other senior officers of the Commission.

NB: I am obliged to write to you since the responsibility devolves upon the Chief Information Commissioner by virtue of sub-section 12(4) of RTI Act 2005.
