Since no\nreply was received within the mandated time of 30 days, he had filed a complaint under Section\n18 to the Commission. The Commission issued a notice to the PIO on 25\/02\/2009 asking him to\nsupply the information and sought an explanation for not furnishing the information within the\nmandated time.\n        The Commission has neither received a copy of the information sent to the complainant,\nnor has it received any explanation from the PIO for not supplying the information to the\ncomplainant. Therefore, the only presumption that can be derived is that the PIO has deliberately\nand without any reasonable cause refused to give information as per the provisions of the RTI\nAct. His failure to respond to the Commission's notice shows that he has no reasons for the\nrefusal of information.\n\nDecision:\nThe Complaint is allowed.\n       The PIO will send the complete information to the complainant before May 20, 2009.\nThe PIO's action clearly amounts to denial of information without any reasons. The PIO is\ntherefore, asked to submit a written explanation showing cause as to why penalty should not be\nimposed and disciplinary action be recommended against him under Section 20 (1) &amp; (2) of the\nRTI Act before May 25, 2009.\n       If the information has already been supplied to the complainant, furnish a copy of the\nsame to the Commission with your written submission.\n\nNotice of this decision be given free of cost to the parties.\n.\n<\/pre>\n<p>                                                                                          Shailesh Gandhi<br \/>\n                                                                                Information Commissioner<br \/>\n                                                                                            April 28, 2009.\n<\/p>\n<p>For any further communication with the Commission please mention the decision No. given at the top.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Central Information Commission Dr Anand Prakash Sharma vs Mcd on 28 April, 2009 CENTRAL INFORMATION COMMISSION Room No. 415, 4th Floor, Block IV, Old JNU Campus, New Delhi &#8211; 110067.
