Facts

: i

1. The appeal was scheduled for hearing on 30/6/2010. But, the appellant
did not avail of this opportunity of personal hearing. The appeal is, therefore,
examined on merit.

2. In response to the RTI application, the CPIO has furnished partial
information while the remaining information has been refused u/s 8(1)(h) of the
Act, on the ground that the process of enquiry has not been completed as yet.
Being dissatisfied with the response, the appellant has submitted the appeal
before the Commission and pleaded for providing complete information.

Decision:

3. The appellant has neither indicated as to what is the public interest in
disclosure of information, which has been refused to him u/s 8(1)(h) of the Act,
nor he has indicated as to how he is affected in the matter.

4. This appeal is therefore considered unnecessary and is thus disposed of.
