Right to Information Act2005Under Section (19)
Dated: 16 September 2010
Name of the Appellant : Smt. Laxmi Devi Meena
C/o. Shri Kajodmal Meena,
178/3, Sanchar Vihar Colony,
Malviya Nagar, Jaipur.
Name of the Public Authority : CPIO, Department of Space,
ISRO Headquarters,
Antariksh Bhawan, Bangaluru - 560 231.
The Appellant was present along with Shri P. Meena.
On behalf of the Respondent, Shri Satish, CPIO was present.
2. We heard this case through videoconferencing. The Appellant was present in
the Jaipur studio of the NIC along with her brother. The Respondents were present in
the Bangalore studio. We heard their submissions.
3. The Appellant submitted that she was the wife of Shivlal Meena, a former
employee of the DoS and now deceased. She had asked for a number of information
about her deceased husband. The CPIO had provided some information but had
denied some others. The Respondents explained that some of the information in the
nature of personal information had not been disclosed since the Appellant had not
clarified in her application that she was the wife of the deceased employee.
4. Now that the Appellant has made it clear that she is the wife of the deceased
employee, we do not see any reason for not disclosing the remaining information to
her. Therefore, we direct the CPIO to provide to the Appellant within 10 working days
from the receipt of this order the remaining available information against her queries.
5. The case is, thus, disposed off.
6. Copies of this order be given free of cost to the parties.
