\nmarket? Please provide the information within the 30 days.\n<\/p>\n
PIO’s reply:\n<\/p>\n
No reply given by the PIO.\n<\/p>\n
Grounds of the First Appeal:\n<\/p>\n
No information had provided to Complainant.\n<\/p>\n
Ground of the Complaint:\n<\/p>\n
No information had provided to the Complainant. Neither any hearing nor any order had issued, from
\nD.C West Zone, where the Complainant had appeal on 23\/11\/2010.\n<\/p>\n
Submissions received from the PIO:\n<\/p>\n
“With the reference to your application on the subject cited above, the report received from AO\/WZ is
\nenclosed herewith for your information.”\n<\/p>\n
                                                                                         Page 1 of 5<\/span><\/p>\n
 Relevant Facts emerging during Hearing on 29 April 2011:\n<\/p>\n
The following were present
\nComplainant: Mr. Murlidhar Tiwari;\n<\/p>\n
Respondent: Mr. V. S. Yadav, PIO & Assistant Commissioner;\n<\/p>\n
        “No information was provided by the then PIO\/AC(West Zone) Mr. A. K. Saxena. After the
\norder of the FAA which was given on 19\/01\/2011, the PIO has provided a CD containing complete
\ndetails of all the Tehbazaries. The Complainant states he is not able to understand this and what he
\nhad sought was very simple information seeking information about the balance Tehbazari fees to be
\ncollected ward wise. The Respondent states that this is available Market Wise.”\n<\/p>\n
Commission’s Decision dated 29 April 2011:\n<\/p>\n
The complaint was allowed.\n<\/p>\n
       The PIO is directed to provide the market wise balance of Tehbazari Fees as on 31 March
\n2010 to the Complainant before 10 May 2011.\n<\/p>\n
The issue before the Commission is of not supplying the complete, required information by the
\nthen PIO\/AC(West Zone) Mr. A. K. Saxena within 30 days as required by the law. From the
\nfacts before the Commission it appears that the then PIO is guilty of not furnishing information within
\nthe time specified under sub-section (1) of Section 7 by not replying within 30 days, as per the
\nrequirement of the RTI Act. It appears that the PIO’s actions attract the penal provisions of Section 20
\n(1).\n<\/p>\n
A showcause notice is being issued to him, and he is directed give his reasons to the Commission to
\nshow cause why penalty should not be levied on him.\n<\/p>\n
The then PIO\/AC(West Zone) Mr. A. K. Saxena will present himself before the Commission at the
\nabove address on 31 May 2011 at 11.30am alongwith his written submissions showing cause why
\npenalty should not be imposed on him as mandated under Section 20 (1).”\n<\/p>\n
Relevant Facts emerging during the showcause hearing on 31 May 2011:
\nThe following were present
\nComplainant: Ms. Ritu Saluja representing Mr. Murlidhar Tiwari;
\nRespondent: Mr. A. K. Saxena the then PIO & Assistant Commissioner presently VATO, Trade and
\n               Taxes Department, ITO Complex, New Delhi; Mr. Nagraj, Dealing Assistant (RTI);
\n        “The then PIO Mr. A. K. Saxena has given written submission in which he had received the
\nRTI application on 24\/08\/2010 and had sought the assistance of Mr. Prem Singh, AO(West Zone) on
\n06\/09\/2010. He has stated that the information did not come from Mr. Prem Singh and that he was
\ntransferred from the post on 05\/10\/2010. In view of this the Commission issues a showcause notice to
\nMr. Prem Singh the then AO(West Zone) to present himself before the Commission on 20 June 2011
\nat 02.30PM to showcause why penalty under Section 20(1) should not be levied on him.\n<\/p>\n
Mr. Nagraj, Dealing Assistant (RTI) claims that the information has been sent to the Complainant on
\n09\/05\/2011. The Complainant states that the information has not been received. The Commission
\ndirects Mr. Nagraj to bring the speed post receipt and the information to the Commission before
\n05.30PM today i.e. 31 May 2011.\n<\/p>\n
Mr. Nagraj came to the Commission at 04.00PM and has produced the speed post receipt by which
\nthe information was sent to the Complainant on 11\/05\/2011. The speed post receipt number is
\nED311539749IN of weight 230grams. He has also given a copy of the information of 32 pages which
\nwas sent to the Complainant and the Commission is sending it to the Complainant with this order. It
\nappears that the information was sent to the Complainant on 11\/05\/2011.”\n<\/p>\n
                                                                                            Page 2 of 5<\/span><\/p>\n
 Adjunct Decision dated 31\/05\/2011:\n<\/p>\n
        “The Commission directs Mr. Prem Singh the then AO(West Zone) to appear before the
\nCommission on 20 June 2011 at 02.30PM to showcause why penalty under Section 20(1) should not
\nbe levied on him.”\n<\/p>\n
Relevant facts emerging during the showcase hearing on 20\/06\/2011:
\nRespondent: Mr. Prem Singh, the then AO(West Zone) and Mr. N. Nagraj, Deemed PIO & Licensing
\nInspector;\n<\/p>\n
        The then AO(West Zone) Mr. Prem Singh has given his written submission, wherein it is
\nmentioned that the RTI application dated 22\/08\/2010 was never put up before him. However the
\nDA\/RTI Mr. N.Nagraj had given the said RTI application directly to all the Deemed PIOs. Deemed
\nPIO Mr. N.Nagraj has accepted that he had marked the RTI application to the deemed PIOs &
\nLicensing Inspectors Mr. P.Bose, Mr. R.S. Dabas, Mr. Jeewan Singh, Mr. S.K. Tyagi and himself.
\nMr. N. Nagraj has claimed that since the information sought is being voluminous they could not
\nfurnish the same to the Complainant within the stipulated time period. However deemed PIO Mr. N.
\nNagraj has never informed the same to the Complainant. After the order of the FAA which was given
\non 19\/01\/2011, the PIO had provided a CD containing complete details of all the Tehbazaries vide
\nletter dated 19\/01\/2011. The Commission notes that after its order of 29\/04\/2011 the information
\nwas provided to the Complainant on 11\/05\/2011. Thus the claim of Mr. Nagraj that the information
\nwas very voluminous and could not be supplied does not appear to be correct. The RTI application
\nhad been made on 22\/08\/2010 and the information should have been supplied to the Complainant
\nbefore 22\/09\/2010. Instead the information has been supplied to the Complainant only on 11\/05\/2011.
\nFrom the statement of Mr. N. Nagraj, Deemed PIO it appears that information had to be provided by
\nhim and Mr. P.Bose, Mr. R.S. Dabas, Mr. Jeewan Singh, Mr. S.K. Tyagi. The Commission issues a
\nshowcause notice to Deemed PIO & Licensing Inspectors Mr. P.Bose, Mr. R.S. Dabas, Mr. Jeewan
\nSingh, Mr. S.K. Tyagi to showcause why penalty under Section 20(1) should not be levied on them
\nfor not providing the information within the time mandated under the RTI Act.\n<\/p>\n
They will appear before the Commission with their written submissions on 14 July 2011 at 04.30PM.\n<\/p>\n
Adjunct Decision:\n<\/p>\n
The Commission directs Mr. P.Bose, Mr. R.S. Dabas, Mr. Jeewan Singh and Mr. S.K.
\nTyagi to appears before the Commission on 14 July 2011 at 04.30PM with their
\nwritten submission to show cause whey penalty under Section 20(1) should not be
\nimposed on them for not providing the information with in 30 days.\n<\/p>\n
The Commission asked Mr. N. Nagraj to explain the reasons for the delay. He has given a written
\nsubmission in which he has claimed that the information sought was voluminous and hence it took
\ntime to supply the information. The Commission notes that ultimately the information was provided
\nin about 11 days and the deemed PIO & Licensing Inspector Mr. Nagraj who along with four others
\nwho held the information did not provide it within the time of 30 days mandated in the Act.\n<\/p>\n
Section 20 (1) of the RTI Act states, “Where the Central Information Commission or the State
\nInformation Commission, as the case may be, at the time of deciding any complaint or appeal is of the
\nopinion that the Central Public Information Officer or the State Public Information Officer, as the case
\nmay be, has, without any reasonable cause, refused to receive an application for information or has
\nnot furnished information within the time specified under sub-section (1) of section 7 or malafidely
\ndenied the request for information or knowingly given incorrect, incomplete or misleading
\n                                                                                            Page 3 of 5<\/span>
\n information or destroyed information which was the subject of the request or obstructed in any
\nmanner in furnishing the information, it shall impose a penalty of two hundred and fifty rupees each
\nday till application is received or information is furnished, so however, the total amount of such
\npenalty shall not exceed twenty five thousand rupees;\n<\/p>\n
Provided that the Central Public Information Officer or the State Public Information Officer, as the
\ncase may be, shall be given a reasonable opportunity of being heard before any penalty is imposed on
\nhim:\n<\/p>\n
Provided further that the burden of proving that he acted reasonably and diligently shall be on the
\nCentral Public Information Officer or the State Public Information Officer, as the case may be.”
\nA plain reading of Section 20 reveals that there are three circumstances where the Commission must
\nimpose penalty:\n<\/p>\n
1)     Refusal to receive an application for information.\n<\/p>\n
2)     Not furnishing information within the time specified under sub-section (1) of section 7 – 30
\n       days.\n<\/p>\n
3)     Malafidely denying the request for information or knowingly giving incorrect, incomplete or
\n       misleading information or destroying information which was the subject of the request\n<\/p>\n
4)     Obstructing in any manner in furnishing the information.\n<\/p>\n
All the above are prefaced by the infraction, ‘ without reasonable cause’.\n<\/p>\n
Section 19 (5) of the RTI Act has also stated that “In any appeal proceedings, the onus to prove that a
\ndenial of a request was justified shall be on the Central Public Information Officer or State Public
\nInformation Officer, as the case may be, who denied the request.”\n<\/p>\n
Thus if without reasonable cause, information is not furnished within the time specified under sub-
\nsection (1) of section 7, the Commission is dutybound to levy a penalty at the rate of rupees two
\nhundred and fifty each day till the information is furnished. Once the Commission decides that there
\nwas no reasonable cause for delay, it has to impose the penalty at the rate specified in Section 20 (1)
\nof the RTI Act and the law gives no discretion in the matter. The burden of proving that denial of
\ninformation by the PIO was justified and reasonable is clearly on the PIO as per Section 19(5) of the
\nRTI Act.\n<\/p>\n
The information should have been provided to the Complainant before 22\/09\/2010. Instead it was
\nprovided to him only on 11\/05\/2011 after the order of the Information Commission. Since the delay in
\nproviding the information is over 100 days the Commission is imposing the maximum penalty of
\n`25000\/- under Section 20(1) of the RTI Act on Mr. N. Nagraj, Deemed PIO & Licensing Inspector.\n<\/p>\n
Decision:\n<\/p>\n
          As per the provisions of Section 20 (1) of the RTI Act 2005, the Commission
\nfinds this a fit case for levying penalty on Mr. N. Nagraj, Deemed PIO & Licensing
\nInspector Since the delay in providing the information has been over 100 days, the
\nCommission is passing an order penalizing Mr. N. Nagraj `25000\/ which is the
\nmaximum penalty under the Act.\n<\/p>\n
                                                                                           Page 4 of 5<\/span><\/p>\n
        The Commissioner, Municipal Corporation of Delhi is directed to recover the
\namount of `25000\/- from the salary of Mr. N. Nagraj and remit the same by a demand
\ndraft or a Banker’s Cheque in the name of the Pay & Accounts Officer, CAT, payable
\nat New Delhi and send the same to Shri Pankaj K.P. Shreyaskar, Joint Registrar and
\nDeputy Secretary of the Central Information Commission, 2nd Floor, August Kranti
\nBhawan, New Delhi – 110066. The amount may be deducted at the rate of `5000\/ per
\nmonth every month from the salary of Mr. N. Nagraj and remitted by the 10th of every
\nmonth starting from July 2011. The total amount of `25000 \/- will be remitted by 10th
\nof November, 2011.\n<\/p>\n
                                                                                                Shailesh Gandhi
