i have same experience. I had filled second appeal against the order of first appellate authority and registrar general. I wrote notes of arguments and submitted to the office of Information commissioner I wrote specifically on Article 227 and power of high court to make rules and also that high court rules inconsistent to any law for the time being in force are void as per proviso after clause 3 of article 227 but Mr. Tiwari ignored the notes arguments and told that he has not received any notes of arguments infact his office received the same prior to the date of hearing i wrote a complaint against Mr tiwari but Mr Habiullah has initiated any action nor my request to place my petition before full bench. The CIC always adopting double standards those who are appearing through lawyers their matters are easily referred to full bench and no action is taken ordinary complainant like my complaint is also not heard the cic is not giving opportunity of hearing to the complaints and dispose of complaints only after hearing pio concern the act of cic is clear violation of principles of natural justice as enshrined under article 14 of the constitution of india even state commission has declined to declare rules as void you may refer the decision in my case in August 2009 viadya --- On Sun, 26/8/12, C K Jam <rtiwanted@yahoo.com> wrote: From: C K Jam <rtiwanted@yahoo.com> Subject: Re: [HumJanenge] RTI Rules Bombay High Court To: "humjanenge@googlegroups.com" <humjanenge@googlegroups.com> Date: Sunday, 26 August, 2012, 7:47 PM My Complaints against various High Courts against Rules famed by them are still pending in the CIC - since December 2009 / January 2010. No hearing date in spite of several reminders. I was suddenly informed that these Complaints could not be heard since the Delhi HC had ordered a stay on the CIC hearing any matters related to obtaining information from courts under RTI. However, my pending Complaints do not concern this issues at all so obviously they have to be heard. Still trying !

If you look at rule 13, it lists additional exemptions other than those defined in section 8(1). I wonder if Bombay High court is empowered u/s 24 to create its own exemptions..overriding an Act of Parliament...If you look at 1st clause, it says that "Information which is not in public domain shall not be disclosed"..It can mean that they are virtually denying most of the information.  What is the state at other HCs? And can we do something about it? Regards. Girish Mittal
