ORDER
In the present case, the Appellant through his RTI application dated 21.04.2009
sought information in connection with the sanction of special increment to her by the
CRPF. The PIO vide letter dated 16.07.2009, provided factual information regarding
increment of the Appellant. Not satisfied with the reply, the Appellant filed an appeal
before the Commission. The FA vide decision dated 29.07.2009 upheld the reply of the
PIO.
During the hearing the Appellant submits that she has not been given special
increment for achieving medals in national and international sports tournaments. The
Respondent on the other hand submit that despite the fact that the information requested
by the Appellant was neither related to violation of human rights or corruption, but in
their personal interest, requisite information has been provided to the Appellant.
After hearing the parties and on perusal of the relevant documents on file, the
Commission is of the view that the PIO, CISF is not bound to provide the requested
information to the Appellant as the information requested does not pertain to violation of
human rights or corruption, inspite of which the PIO has already provided the requisite
information to the Appellant. Therefore, no interference is called for in the replies of the
Respondent. The Appellant is advised to raise her grievance before the concerned
competent authority.
The matter is disposed of on the part of the Commission.
