Re: [IAC#RG] CIC reserved orders

Dear Col Sood

I suspect you are referring to the matter before IC O.P.Kejriwal where he directed (on grounds of anti-corruption) that immoveable property asset details of HAL officers would be disclosed to an applicant  masquerading as an RTI activist. If so, your suspicion is correct.

Dear Nidhi,
What Mr Sarbjit has written much of it is true. I have been a PIO of Def CPSU and been a witness to such practices. In fact in one among many such cases  I was summoned by the office of the CIC and before I could sit the IC started dictating his decision. Even after a lot of persuasion to hear me out, he did listen for 45 mins as a formality, but gave the same pre decided ruling which had wider ramification.
Yet on another count there were serious allegation against the IC, too well known to people in those days.

Subject: [IAC#RG] CIC reserved orders


Dear Nidhi

I'm posting this to a mailing list as you requested

From my own experience I can state as follows:-

CIC decisions are reserved when

a) The IC is incompetent and circulates it to his cronies for advise when he gets stuck.

b)  The IC and the Public Authority have predecided the matter before the hearing, but the appellant throws them off course in the hearing and disrupts their well laid plans so they need to reserve it.

c) Open disagreement between the members of a Bench. This happened to in one of my cases (DDA matter) between Wajahat Habibullah and M.L.Sharma, and Mr. Habibullah ended up drafting a bizarre order which resulted in CIC Management Regulations 2007 being struck down in the High Court for his arrogance.

d) IC needs to seek advise of CIC's Legal dept.

e) IC concerned simply hands it over to the "winning side" to draft. I have personally drafted many orders at CIC which were simply brushed up and delivered by them later.

Dear Sarbajit

I am working on a story on CIC and would appreciate your help and inputs. I have come across a few cases where CIC hears final arguments and reserves its judgements  for months. I was wondering if you have come across the same problem in your interactions with CIC? Or would it be possible for you to put this question across to your googlegroup and see if there are some responses?

Would appreciate your help
Regards
Nidhi
