This is History (581)
In today's Asia, even revolution runs on Japanese wheels.
Old order changeth yielding Place To New
The Old Order Changeth Yielding Place To New. The line occurs in the
poem 'The Passing of Arthur' by Tennyson and is indicative of a note
of optimism. Nothing in life or in nature is ever constant. Change is
the law of life.
They want to act a Yogi
UP Chief Minister Aditya Nath Yogi has put Chief Ministers of BJP ruled
states in a fix in loan waiver to farmers. Now political parties and
farmer organisations want to act Yogi.
What a timing ?
SC has reportedly give hint that Babri case could be reopend and Advani,
Joshi, Uma Bharti are likely to face trial again in this case. Now experts
has a point that if SC direct to reopen Babri case then one thing is
certain now Advani and Joshi can not be NDA's presidential candidate.
This is called timing ?

BJP is unfair !
The BJP is being unfair on the issue of advertisements and lawyers fees
for Delhi Govt. On one hand BJP saysDelhi is for whole of India and
on the other makes these bogus claims. It's sad to see the state of
politics preached by BJP and supported by WIC also. what a shame.
Poonam Pandey
Justice a far cry for Aam Aadmi
He has billed his client approximately 4 crores. He says it is concessional
as he charges more according to the paying capacity of the client. He
charges for retainership a huge amount plus pre-hearing conference fees
and heavy fees per hearing, which ranges from a minimum of Rs. 25 lakhs
and goes to any limit (depending again upon the client's paying capacity).
He is one from his class of lawyers in India. At this huge cost which
Indian can afford to engage this lawyer? This is the SOCIALIST Repulic
of India. It promised us "justice". We have sacrificed everything
for getting justice. And where do, we the people of India, stand today?
Denied justice, we are regularly incarcerated, hanged and penalized.
Our poverty not to be able to pay such huge fees is our crime. Admitted.
And we deserve to be treated like that. If our cases remain pending
in courts for decades or we remain "under trial" for decades,
we have really no case for a grouse. We are great revolutionaries! We
turned into satyagrahis, socialists, communists, Maoists, naxalites,
young Turks, Lohiates, JPites
and what not! What a criminal waste
of the first 5 decades of independence? We should have borrowed wisdom
from such capitalism. Charges not known, fees not capped- only poor
salaried persons to be squeezed to the maximum. Long live chavannicchaap
revolution!

Modi means business in Delhi but not in Kolkata
There is no doubt that the Modi Government means business, but the ministries
are not able to set right the offices outside Delhi. In Kolkata, none
of the central government offices including the offices under the Ministry
of Health and Family Welfare have shown any sign of improvement. The
poor work culture of the left regime and the humiliation and heckling
of the senior officers do continue and the Ministries are just looking
the other way. I Wonder, if PM will pay his attention here too so that
we can work with dignity and confidence in making his mission a success.

Kudos to Hasmukhbhai Adhia

Grievance redressal is beyond the purview of RTI Act
The Complainant submitted that vide his RTI application, he had
sought details of the action taken on his earlier representations
regarding granting him temporary status, etc. It was also submitted
that he had sought the attendance details of other daily wage
earners which was not provided to him. In reply, the Respondent
(Delhi) submitted that information regarding attendance of Casual
Labours was related to Field Department, Meerut and hence the
application was transferred to Meerut vide letter of April, 2013.
The Respondent (Meerut) submitted that all available information
was provided to the Appellant. The Complainant submitted that
in essence his RTI application related to the grievance of granting
him a temporary status as opposed to other junior employees. The
Commission observed that under the provisions of the RTI Act,
2005, only such information as is available and existing and held
by the public authority or is under control of the public authority
can be provided. The PIO is not supposed to create information
that is not a part of the record. He is also not required to interpret
information or furnish replies to hypothetical questions. Similarly,
redressal of grievance, reasons for non-compliance of rules/contesting
the actions of the respondent public authority are outside the
purview of the Act.
Comments
Comments
It is often seen that the CIC is approached for redressal of his
grievance. Everyone must realise that RTI is the forum for obtaining
information and that armed with the necessary Page information,
an individual may approach the appropriate authority for further
necessary action.
