Is this democracy ?
The National Herald case stinks of fraud and misappropriation - a classic
case where fraudsters allegedly create dodgy wealth, transfers and then
sit on it - knowing full well that the legal system will take decades
to resolve. What was the motive behind collecting goons and exhort them
to create breach of peace around the court's premises in Delhi ? What
kind of message, a mainstream political party intends to send to people
of India ?

Making a heavy weather of governance
Arvind Kejriwal is making a heavy weather of governance. Only non issues
seem to interest him. His lack of experience in governance is equally
apparent. Further, by removing his erstwhile colleagues who were co-founders
of his party, he has ensured that there is little wise counsel left
with him.

Criticising everything superior !
It has become a fashion to criticize everything superior. The IAS is
having advantage, since it has been so designed. Let the government
say that henceforth any other service will be topmost, all the top applicants
/ scorers will opt for it.However you cannot change the rules in the
middle of the game. Spare a thought also for those who lose several
years in other services and join IAS. Everyone desires the best without
deserving it.This is unfortunately the character of sme people. But
there is no way a first class will be 3rd class and vice versa. Perhaps
then why only claas A services? Let all employees from peon to cab secretary
have the same rank n pay! Woudnt it promote socialism of the best kind
!

Cancellation of Pravasi Divas - a right step
Cancellation of Pravasi Divas this year is right step in the right direction.
As not much has been achieved by this event. This was annual wasteful
expenditure. NRIs, if they are really keen to do something for India
should invest in real terms and do some charity too for poor people.
Most of them who flew for green pastures have ulterior interests in
India, enjoying 2 cakes at our cost without any contributions.

Disclosure of information in relation to unauthorised construction
and encroachment
Photocopy of entire case file of unauthorised construction of
building was denied by the PIO, East Delhi Municipal Corporation
on ground of being third party information. In his initial reply,
the PIO provided contradictory information about whether the property
has been sealed. The appellant stated that due to unauthorised
construction on the above mentioned property, extensive damage
was caused to his house. The respondent claimed that the sealing
and de-sealing of any property is personal in nature. The CIC
observed that disclosure of information in relation to unauthorised
construction and encroachment does not require clearance from
any third party. Looking into the circumstances of the case, the
CIC granted a compensation of Rs. 25,000/- to be paid to the appellant
u/s 19(8) (b) of the RTI Act. Further, a show cause notice was
issued to the PIO as to why penalty should not be imposed on him
u/s 20 RTI Act, 2005 for outright deliberate denial of information.
Comments
Sealing and de-sealing of any property is a part of official work.
In a number of cases, the CIC has ruled that disclosure of information
in relation to unauthorised construction of building and encroachment
cannot be said to be personal information of the third party and
as such, disclosure in such cases do not require clearance from
any third party.
