Will the railways ever become the engine of growth?
While the latest India Today has lauded the CRB for changing colors
faster than a chameleon, Modi's biggest challenge in his efforts to

present shape, railways would never emerge from the mess it is in.

Reduce the retirement age to 55 years
Yes, I have experienced that Government servant retained more in service
becomes more egoist and having a negative attitude so it is better to
reduce the retirement age to 55 years as it was in older days. By doing
this Govt. can infuse young blood in the process of making honest decisions
as well as removing negative, stubborn and egoist persons from the system
to get it cleaned.
Retired civil servant
High hope from new govt
The Indian Council of Forestry Research and Education (ICFRE)/FRI, an
autonomous council of Ministry of Environment and Forests, GoI (only
council) has a very high hope with new government to excel in field
of Forest and Environmental Science. I hope during the regime of NDA
under the dynamic leader-ship of Shri Modi ji, the science in India
will flourish.

DATE WITH RTI

Contradictory stand by the PIO
An application was filed under the Right to Information (RTI)
Act with the Public Information Officer (PIO) of the Stressed
Assets Stabilization Fund (SASF) seeking information regarding
Deed of Assignment being Debt Assignment entered with IDBI, the
original secured creditor under SARFACEI Act etc. The PIO denied
the information u/s 8(1)(d) & (e) of the RTI Act. The appellant
submitted that he is the Managing Director and largest shareholder
of the Terrygold (India) Limited and the information sought by
him is required to settle his account with the public authority
in the light of demand made by many shareholders of the company.
The PIO argued that RTI applicant is seeking information on behalf
of his company which is not allowed as per the provisions of the
RTI Act. Further, the information sought by the appellant is already
available with him as he is the Managing Director and largest
shareholder of the Terrygold (India) Limited. The Central Information
Commission (CIC) observed that the PIO is taking contradictory
stands as in his reply he is claiming that the information sought
may not be disclosed as it attracts section 8(1)(d) and 8(1)(e)
of the RTI Act, on the other hand, at the hearing he is claiming
the fact that information sought by the appellant is already available
with him. The CIC remanded the matter back to the PIO with the
directions to provide speaking and reasoned order.
Comments
The case indicates lack of awareness of the provisions of the
RTI Act at the level of PIO. The PIO was lucky to have escaped
without any action against him.
