Appellant : Shri Himmat Changwal

(through Shri Brij Lal, Dy Director (Hort)

Date of Hearing : 31.3.2010
Date of Decision : 31.3.2010
FACTS
:
The matter is called for hearing today dated 31.3.2010. Appellant
not present. The public authority is represented by the officer named
above. It is noticed that the appellant had sought information on 05 paras
regarding the Central Park located in Pocket-13, Dwarka, Phase-I from
DDA. The CPIO had informed the appellant vide letter dated 2.9.2009 that
the Park had been transferred to MCD on 20.8.2008 and, therefore, the
matter no more relates to DDA. It is also noticed that in the appeal memo
filed before this Commission, the appellant has stated that the CPIO of
DDA took more than 30 days in responding to his RTI application. It is
true that there has been some delay which is explained by Shri Brij Lal on
the ground that the Horticulture Department wanted to be on a sure footing
regarding the transfer to Park to MCD before committing itself and this
caused slight delay. The explanation of Shri Brij Lal appears to be
acceptable.
2. In view of the above, the appeal has no merit and is dismissed. It is
open to the appellant to seek requisite information from the concerned
CPIO of MCD.
