In Paper IV of CGL (Main) Examination I have only 23 marks out of<br \/>\n100 which I don&#8217;t believe. I have attached the printout of my marks available on website of SSC.<br \/>\nTherefore I kindly request you to please provide for me the Photo Copies of my Paper IVth answer sheets,<br \/>\nor if not possible, I may be given a chance to see my answer sheets so that I may be sure about my marks.\n<\/p>\n<p>PIO&#8217;s reply:\n<\/p>\n<p>I am directed to refer to your letter\/application on the subject mentioned above and to say that all the<br \/>\npapers are checked\/verified twice before the declaration of the result. There is no discrepancy in your<br \/>\nmarks as appearing in the Website.\n<\/p>\n<p>2. As per policy decision of the Commission there is no provision of providing\/showing the copy of the<br \/>\nevaluated answer booklet to the candidates\/applicants.\n<\/p>\n<p>Grounds for First appeal:\n<\/p>\n<p>Information should be provided.\n<\/p>\n<p>FAA order:\n<\/p>\n<p>Your appeal dated 03 .06.2010 has been considered. However, it is seen that a reply to your initial<br \/>\napplication has already been sent to you by Shri Satya Prakash, CPIO, SSC vide letter No.15\/1\/2009-C-Ill<br \/>\n(Vol.111) dated 12.05.2010 (copy enclosed).

However, neither party appeared. From a perusal<br \/>\nof the papers it appears that the Appellant had sought photocopy of his answersheet of Paper-IV. The PIO<br \/>\nhas informed the Appellant that the papers are checked and verified twice and that there is no discrepancy<br \/>\nin marks. The PIO has also stated that as per the policy of the Staff Selection Commission there is no<br \/>\nprovision of providing\/showing the copy of the evaluated answer booklets to the candidates\/applicants.\n<\/p>\n<p>The PIO has claimed no exemption under any of the clauses of Section 8(1) of the RTI Act and has denied<br \/>\nthe information based on the Staff Selection Commission&#8217;s policy. When a citizen applies under the RTI<br \/>\nAct information has to be provided to him unless it is exempted under one of the provisions of Section<br \/>\n8(1) of the RTI Act. The PIO has erred in refusing to provide the information without any justification<br \/>\nbeing offered as per the RTI Act. As per Section 19(5) of the RTI Act the onus to prove that a denial of a<br \/>\nrequest was justified is on the PIO. Since no justification has been offered it appears to be a denial of<br \/>\ninformation without any reasonable cause.\n<\/p>\n<p>Besides the Central Information Commission in a full bench in Complaint No.<br \/>\nCIC\/WB\/C2006\/00223; Appeal Nos. CIC\/WB\/A\/2006\/00469; &amp; 00394 on 23 April 2007 has<br \/>\ndecided:\n<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;40. Insofar as examinations conducted by other public authorities, the main function of which is not of<br \/>\nconducting examinations, but only for filling up of posts either by promotion or by recruitment, be it<br \/>\nlimited or public, the rationale of the judgments of the Supreme Court may not be applicable in their<br \/>\ntotality, as in arriving at their conclusions, the above judgments took into consideration various facts like<br \/>\nthe large number of candidates, the method and criteria of selection of examiners, existence of a fool-<br \/>\nproof system with proper checks and balances etc. Therefore, in respect of these examinations, the<br \/>\ndisclosure of the answer sheets shall be the general rule but each case may have to be examined<br \/>\nindividually to see as to whether disclosure of evaluated answer sheets would render the system<br \/>\nunworkable in practice. If that be so, the disclosure of the evaluated answer sheets could be denied but<br \/>\nnot otherwise. However, while doing so the concerned authority should ensure that the name and identity<br \/>\nof the examiner, supervisor or any other person associated with the process of examination is in no way<br \/>\ndisclosed so as to endanger the life or physical safety of such person. If it is not possible to do so in such<br \/>\ncases, the authority concerned may decline the disclosure of the evaluated answer sheets u\/s 8 (1) (g).&#8221;\n<\/p>\n<p>Thus the denial of information of a photocopy of the answer sheet of the Appellant by the PIO is without<br \/>\nany justification.\n<\/p>\n<p>Decision:\n<\/p>\n<p>The Appeal is allowed.\n<\/p>\n<p>      The PIO is directed to provide an attested photocopy of the answersheet of the<br \/>\nAppellant to him before 25 August 2011.\n<\/p>\n<p>The issue before the Commission is of not supplying the complete, required information by the PIO<br \/>\nwithin 30 days as required by the law.\n<\/p>\n<p>From the facts before the Commission it appears that the PIO is guilty of not furnishing information<br \/>\nwithin the time specified under sub-section (1) of Section 7 by not replying within 30 days, as per the<br \/>\nrequirement of the RTI Act.\n<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                                                                                  Page 2 of 3<\/span><\/p>\n<p> It appears that the PIO&#8217;s actions attract the penal provisions of Section 20 (1). A showcause notice is<br \/>\nbeing issued to him, and he is directed give his reasons to the Commission to show cause why penalty<br \/>\nshould not be levied on him.\n<\/p>\n<p>He will present himself before the Commission at the above address on 23 August 2011 at 4.30pm<br \/>\nalongwith his written submissions showing cause why penalty should not be imposed on him as mandated<br \/>\nunder Section 20 (1). He will also submit proof of having given the information to the appellant.\n<\/p>\n<p>If there are other persons responsible for the delay in providing the information to the Appellant the<br \/>\nPIO is directed to inform such persons of the show cause hearing and direct them to appear before the<br \/>\nCommission with him.\n<\/p>\n<p>This decision is announced in open chamber.\n<\/p>\n<p>Notice of this decision be given free of cost to the parties.\n<\/p>\n<p>Any information in compliance with this Order will be provided free of cost as per Section 7(6) of RTI Act.\n<\/p>\n<p>                                                                                                        Shailesh Gandhi<br \/>\n                                                                                              Information Commissioner<br \/>\n                                                                                                           29 July 2011<br \/>\n(In any correspondence on this decision, mention the complete decision number.)
