Re: [HumJanenge] Former IB chief among 3 new Information Commissioners at CIC

Selection comittee did not perform its duties honestly at all. they were dutiful to see that  the govt deptts under the  3 selected govt officers/ I.Cs  never denied  the asked rti information  contrary to rti spirit.

If their ministry / deptt /institution  ever denied the information to rti applicants disrespecting the RTI spirit ; those highest officers  are also responsible for the misdeeds of info refusals  absurdly by their junior officers. So such irresponsible officers must never be selected for pious post of the Info Commissioners.

I am quite sure that the dishonest leaders' committee of manmohansingh, chidambaram, sushmaswaraj  never put this test on the candidates; and they absurdly ,illegally , immorally selected the wrongdoers.

I know well ; and whole the world know well that the  officers of  the  3 deptts  under the 3 selected officers/ IC candidates   refused  several times  to provide the bonafide , discloseable  information  to the RTI seekers absurdly killing the RTI laws and spirit.

Therefore the selection committee has committed sin/ crime knowingly , and conspiringly so that the information can be absurdly, forcibly denied to the rti seekers.

so they have snatched the  FUNDAMENTAL RIGHT TO SPEECH from the citizens.  Sushmaswaraj has  done more wrong because she was not known as dishonest. But now it is evident that not even a single leader in this country is honest.

God save my India.

 Since I Come across Several RTI requests being turned down by PIOs in Banks Mostly on Very Silly issues or Requests which never fall under the Fiduciary Capacity Shelter Clause , It would be a Good Proposition to Keenly Observe this Person if Appointed .
I also Understand by Documents Supplied by CIC itself that IBA which is just an Association has issued letters of caution/instructions to CEO's of all Public Sector Banks of What information should be Parted or not. This Association is not a Public authority
Mr Seth was One of the Managing committee member at that time .
For Breveity i cite one Sample refusal under Fiduciary clause being " the Inward register of RTI Appln's  includes the details of the applications which were submitted by other parties to the CPIO under the act (meaning RTI act)  as this information relates to personal information the disclosure of which has no relationship to any public activity or interest or disclosure of such information would cause unwarrented invasion of the privacy of any individiual  as such information sought cannot be provided
