Give two years compulsory army training

The only solution to legacy of non performance in India is give 2 years compulsory army training, nursing training etc to all Indian students before they join their college education. This will imbibe punctuality and national feeling and will finally lead to good governance in any field.

Kejriwal not suited for Desk job


Kejriwal is not at all suited for Desk job. Udit Raj, MP(Lok Sabha) once said on TV that "are woh to kaam chor that hamare daftar me kaam karta tha aur roj gayab rahta tha". Even for administrative work he is a novice. How much you can expect from him. He is trying to build his lost reputation by resorting to he and his Cabinet's small gimmick that is "Car pooling".

Foreign lobbies behind intolerance nonsense


All this intolerance nonsense is being spread by foreign lobbies to give bad name to India. Indians have still not understood because they do not study the events seriously. The so called church attack was not an attack but was stone throwing by children playing nearby. This has been accepted by the said church also. But either ignorant people or those who want to malign India are still harping the concocted story to defame the country.

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.
