Meena, APIO on behalf of PIO Mr. V.R.Bansal;<br \/>\nThe Respondent shows that the information has been provided to the Appellant on 24\/09\/2009.<br \/>\nThe PIO will now provide the following information to the Appellant:<br \/>\n1-     Whether the file was made for the complaint lodged by the Appellant. If the file was<br \/>\nmade the status of the file. The PIO has given the informant that the file was not handed over by<br \/>\nthe JE Mr. Naveen Dahiya. This is a very ambiguous statement which appears to hide more<br \/>\ninformation than given.\n<\/p>\n<p>Decision:\n<\/p>\n<p>The appeal is allowed.\n<\/p>\n<p>The information as described above will be provided to the Appellant before 25 October 2009<\/p>\n<p>The issue before the Commission is of not supplying the complete, required information by<br \/>\nthe PIO within 30 days as required by the law. The Respondent has brought a chart fixing the<br \/>\nresponsibility of the officers for the delay. For one thing the MCD officers have been again<br \/>\nplaying their favorite game of passing the papers without adding any value. They have identified<br \/>\ntwo officers who appear to be responsible for the very large delay. Mr. Naveen Dahiya JE<br \/>\nBuilding West Zone held on to the RTI application for 75 days without doing anything. At the<br \/>\nend of 75 days he has passed on the papers to Mr. Suman Tokas, JE Building subsequently Mr.<br \/>\nSuman Tokas gave it to Mr. Hitesh Kumar after 9 days without doing anything with the RTI<br \/>\napplication Mr. Hitesh Kumar in turn sat on the RTI application for 96 days before handing it<br \/>\nover to Mr. Rajesh Sharma. Interestingly the letter shows that Mr. Rajesh Sharma(JE Building)<br \/>\nand Mr. Vijender Singh (AE Building) took just four days to provide information. It is clear that<br \/>\nMr. Hitesh Kumar and Mr. Naveen Dahiya are responsible for the extraordinary delay in<br \/>\nproviding the information.\n<\/p>\n<p>From the facts before the Commission it is apparent that the deemed PIOs Mr. Hitesh Kumar<br \/>\nand Mr. Naveen Dahiya are guilty of not furnishing information within the time specified under<br \/>\nsub-section (1) of Section 7 by not replying within 30 days, as per the requirement of the RTI<br \/>\nAct.\n<\/p>\n<p>It appears that the PIOs actions attract the penal provisions of Section 20 (1). A showcause<br \/>\nnotice is being issued to them, and they are directed give their reasons to the Commission to<br \/>\nshow cause why penalty should not be levied on them.\n<\/p>\n<p>They will present themselves before the Commission at the above address on 11 November 2009<br \/>\nat 12.00pm alongwith their written submissions showing cause why penalty should not be<br \/>\nimposed on them as mandated under Section 20 (1).\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.<br \/>\nAny 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                                                                                            8 October 2009<br \/>\n(In any correspondence on this decision, mention the complete decision number.)Rnj<\/p>\n<p>CC: to Mr. Hitesh Kumar and Mr. Naveen Dahiya through Mr. P.R.
