ORDER
Background
1. The Applicant filed an RTI Application dt.3.3.11 with the CPIO, Central Railway, Mumbai. He stated
that he had traveled from CST to Secunderabad on 17.12.10 by Konark express through AC II class.
He had purchased the eticket through the agent and that the ticket was lost during transit. Since he
has to claim the same in TA Bill, he requested for information about the PNR No. and the fare with
service charges. Shri N.L.Korda, PIO replied on 22.3.11 stating that the Applicant had not enclosed
the IPO and has not mentioned the PNR No. Hence information cannot be given. The Applicant filed
an appeal dt.12.4.11 with the Appellate Authority stating that the IPO was enclosed with the RTI
Application. Nevertheless, he enclosed a counterfoil of IPO along with the copy of the RTI
Application. On not receiving any further response, the Applicant filed a second appeal dt.20.7.11
before CIC.
Decision
2. The Commission on perusal of the submissions on record directs the Appellant to provide the PNR
No. as suggested by the PIO so as to enable him to provide the requisite information.
3. The case is closed at the Commission’s end.
