Shri C. P. Rai vs Central Vigilance Commission on 15 December, 2008<\/div>\n
                         CENTRAL INFORMATION COMMISSION\n                           Appeal No.CIC\/WB\/A\/2007\/01049 dated 14.11.2007\n                              Right to Information Act 2005 - Section 19\n\n\nAppellant        -          Shri C. P. Rai\nRespondent           -      Central Vigilance Commission\n\n\nFacts<\/pre>\n
:\n<\/p>\n
      By an application of 28.5.07 Shri C. P. Rai of Laxmi Nagar, Delhi applied to
\nthe CPIO, CVC seeking the following information with regard to a complaint from
\nthe Upbhokta Hithrath Sansthan of 5.1.07:\n<\/p>\n
         “1.   Please intimate whether the relevant record has been seized
\n               or not. (Complaint file No. 300\/05 from Distt. Forum, Qutab
\n               Institutional area, New Delhi).\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
         2.    If not what are the reasons.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
         3.    Please intimate the action taken against the responsible
\n               officer for not seizing the said record.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
         4.    Please intimate how much time it will take to Seize the
\n               relevant record to eliminate the corruption.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
     To this he received a response from Mr. Vineet Mathur, Dy. Secretary, CVC
\non 2.7.07 as follows:\n<\/p>\n
         “Since the complaints were forwarded for necessary action and the
\n         Commission did not ask for a report in the matter, the Commission
\n         does not expect any reply in such matters from the CVO
\n         concerned. You may follow up the matter with the concerned
\n         authority, if required. However, a copy of your application dated
\n         28.5.2007, made under the RTI Act, is being forwarded to Smt.
\n         Alka Sirohi, IAS (MP 74), Chief Vigilance Officer, Ministry of
\n         Consumer Affairs, Food & Public Distribution, Krishi Bhawan, New
\n         Delhi, for necessary action in terms of Section 6 (3) of the RTI Act.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
     Not satisfied with the fact that CVC had transferred the matter to the
\nMinistry of Consumer Affairs, which according to him had in any case not taken
\nany action on his complaint, he made the following plea before first appellate
\nauthority Sh V Kannan:\n<\/p>\n
                                                1<\/span><\/p>\n
        “Only CVC can now control the culprit President\/ Members of the
\n       Consumer Forum.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
       It is, therefore, requested to seize the documents and furnish the
\n       required information as per RTI request at the earliest.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
      Upon this Shri V. Kannan, Addl. Secy. and First Appellate Authority, CVC in
\nhis letter of 3.8.07 ordered as follows:\n<\/p>\n
       “I find that CPIO had already given you the information to the extent
\n       available in the Commission. As the Commission does not expect
\n       any rely from the CVO concerned on the complaints sent to him for
\n       necessary action, the CPIO had rightly transferred the application
\n       to the CVO u\/s 6 (3) of the RTI Act.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
       The Central Information Commission in its decision No.
\n       CIC\/AT\/A\/2006\/ 00022 dated 31.5.2006 on the appeal of Shri
\n       Pratap Singh Gandas held that the RTI Act cannot be used to make
\n       a public authority do certain things or take certain actions. It can be
\n       invoked only for access to permissible information. The Central
\n       Information      Commission        in     another     decision      No.
\n       CIC\/AT\/A\/2006\/0000045 dated 21.4.2006 on the appeal of dr. D. V.
\n       Rao, held that it is not open to an appellant to ask, in the guise of
\n       seeking information, questions to the public authorities about the
\n       nature and quality of their actions.”\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Appellant’s prayer before us in his second appeal is as below:\n<\/p>\n
       “Not to furnish the information as per rule 7 (9) of the Act,
\n       means that the misleading, incorrect and incomplete
\n       information was provided to me which attracts rule 26 of the
\n       RTI Act. Since the correct information was not provided, the
\n       CPIO must be penalised with Rs. 25,000\/- may be reimbursed
\n       to me and Rs. 25,000\/- as penalty to AA and the amount may
\n       be forwarded to the welfare of the Information seeker.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
      The appeal was heard on 15.12.2008. Only respondent CPIO Shri Prabhat
\nKumar, Dy. Secretary, CVC was present.          Appellant Sh. C.P. Rai had been
\ninformed by Notice dated 5.12.2008 regarding the hearing but he opted not to be
\npresent.\n<\/p>\n
      The only point at issue in this case is the date of the response to the RTI
\napplication of 28.5.07. Response to that application became due on 27.5.07 but<\/p>\n
                                           2<\/span>
\n it appears had actually been given only on 2.7.07. Shri Prabhat Kumar, however,
\nclarified that in fact a reply had been sent on 8.6.07, a copy of which he showed
\nto us and a copy taken on record. In this letter Shri K. L. Ahuja Director & CPIO
\nCVC had informed Shri Rai as follows:\n<\/p>\n
       “The complaints reference No. 140\/06 dated 14.11.2006 No.
\n       161\/06 dated 6.12.2006 and No. 3\/07 dated 5.1.2007, received
\n       from M\/s Upbhogta Hithrath Sanstha have been forwarded to the
\n       Chief Vigilance Officer, Ministry of Consumer Affairs, Food and
\n       Public Distribution, New Delhi, vide Commission’s OM No. Comp.
\n       No. 806\/06\/44593 dated 29.12.2006; Comp No. 806\/06\/46089
\n       dated 16.1.2007 and Comp No. 806\/06\/50340 dated 8.3.2007
\n       respectively, for necessary action in accordance with the
\n       ‘Complaints Handling Policy’ of the Commission which is available
\n       on the its website https:\/\/cvc.nin.in. Since the complaints were
\n       forwarded for necessary action and the Commission did not ask for
\n       a report in the matter, the Commission does not expect any reply in
\n       such matters from the concerned. You may follow up the matter
\n       with the concerned authority, if required. However, a copy of your
\n       application dated 28.5.2007, made under the RTI Act, is being
\n       forwarded to Dr. Sundeep Khanna, Chief Vigilance Officer, Ministry
\n       of Consumer Affairs, Food & Public Distribution, Krishi Bhawan,
\n       New Delhi, for necessary action in terms of Section 6 (3) of the RTI
\n       Act.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
      A copy of this letter was sent to Dr. Sundeep Khanna, CVO, Ministry of
\nConsumer Affairs, Food & Public Distribution Department (CA F&PD).
\nRespondent Shri Prabhat Kumar explained that in referring to information
\nsupplied in his first appeal, Shri C.P. Rai has in fact referred to the letter received
\nfrom Shri K. L. Ahuja which was the letter of 8.6.08, the letter of 2.7.07 having
\nbeen sent by Sh. Vineet Mathur.         The response had in fact been repeated
\nbecause Dr. Sundeep Khanna, to whom the earlier letter had been endorsed as
\nCVO, Department of CA F&PD was in fact not CVO. The letter was, therefore,
\nthen forwarded to Smt. Alka Sirohi, the current CVO with the letter of 2.7.07, a
\ncopy of which was sent to appellant Shri C. P Rai only to inform him of this
\naction. There has, therefore, been no breach of the time limit mandated u\/s 7(1)
\nin the present case.\n<\/p>\n
                                          3<\/span><\/p>\n
                                DECISION NOTICE<\/p>\n
      The application of 28.5.07 of Shri C.P Rai amounts to a request for being
\ninformed of the action taken on the complaint of 5.1.07 of the Upbhokta Hitarth
\nSanstha. This information has in fact been provided on 8.6.07 by CPI Sri Ahuja
\nby informing the applicant Shri Rai that the matter stands transferred to the CVO,
\nDep’t. of CA, F&PD. Thereafter both first and second appeals of appellant Shri
\nRai are in the nature of grievance at the manner in which the CVC had disposed
\nof this complaint, not a request for information which alone this Commission
\nstands empowered to direct provision of.       The appeal, being outside the
\npurview of this Commission, fails and is therefore dismissed.\n<\/p>\n
      On the question of apparent delay in response to the application, this doubt
\nhas proved unfounded in light of the letter of 8.6.08 providing the information
\nsought to appellant Shri Rai. There will, therefore, be no penalty. It is also
\nclarified for the information of appellant that penalties under the Act are no
\ncompensation and are therefore payable only to government.\n<\/p>\n
      Announced in the hearing. Notice of this decision be given free of cost to
\nthe parties.\n<\/p>\n
