Decision No. 5757/IC(A)/2010
F. No.CIC/MA/A/2010/000451
Dated, the 13th August, 2010
Name of the Appellant : Smt. Rekha
Name of the Public Authority : Indian Oil Corporation Ltd.
Facts
:
1. The appeal was scheduled for hearing on 12th August, 2010, but the
appellant did not avail of the opportunity of personal hearing. The appeal is
therefore examined on merit.
2. In response to the RTI application, the CPIO has furnished a point-wise
response. There is no denial of information under section 8 (1) of the Act. It
seems that the appellant is not satisfied with CPIO’s response, mainly because
she has asked for information through various forms of queries.
Decision:
3. An information seeker is expected to ask for information as per section 2
(f) and (j) of the Act. A requester is not required to seek answers to various
queries, as has been attempted in the instant case.
4. With these observations, this appeal is disposed of.
