Facts

:

1. The appellant has grievances regarding payment of pension. In this context,
he has sought for certain information through his RTI application. He has alleged
that neither the CPIO nor the Appellate Authority has replied. Hence, this complaint
before the Commission.

Decision:

2. The CPIO is directed to furnish the information on the basis of available
records within 15 days from the date of issue of this decision, failing which penalty
proceeding under section 20 (1) of the Act would be initiated.

3. The appellant would be free to inspect the records containing the details of
settlement of his pension benefits.

4. There are no provisions under the Act for redressal of grievances regarding

approach the competent authority for necessary relief in the matter.
