C. Sethi\nRespondent:         Department of Personnel &amp; Training (DoP&amp;T), New Delhi.\n                            Decision Announced: 29.3.'10\nFacts<\/pre>\n<p>:-\n<\/p>\n<p>      The Commission has received a complaint from Shri R. C. Sethi of Khan<br \/>\nMarket, New Delhi that his request under RTI Act, 2005 submitted to the Central<br \/>\nPublic Information Officer, HQ, Central Bureau of Investigation, New Delhi, which<br \/>\nwas first sent to the OS (Pers-I)\/CBI\/Head Officer\/New Delhi on 05.06.2009 u\/s<br \/>\n5(4) of the Act for seeking assistance by the CPIO and thereafter further<br \/>\ntransferred to CPIO, Department of Personnel &amp; Training, New Delhi on<br \/>\n11.06.2009 u\/s 6(3) of the Act, seeking a copy of the enquiry reports submitted<br \/>\nby Inquiry Officers to the disciplinary authorities and the orders passed thereon<br \/>\nby disciplinary authorities in respect of CBI ID No. DPAD 5\/2002\/0869\/3\/51\/91<br \/>\ndated 20.12.2002 and CBI ID No. DP (Pers.-I)\/2006\/4208\/3\/51\/91pt. dated<br \/>\n18.12.2006, has not been responded to, even though the same was duly<br \/>\nsubmitted along with the requisite fee dated 02.06.2009. The complainant has<br \/>\nfurther alleged that the stipulated time of 30 days in the present case has also<br \/>\nexpired in case of CPIO, SP (HQ)\/CBI &amp; CPIO\/CBI\/HO\/New Delhi.\n<\/p>\n<p>      Admitting the complaint of Shri Sethi under Section 18(1) (b) of RTI Act,<br \/>\n2005 the Commission served notice on 22.02.2010 on CPIOs, Central Bureau of<br \/>\ninvestigation and Department of Personnel &amp; Training, New Delhi for furnishing<br \/>\ncomments on the complaint. In response, both CPIOs have submitted their<br \/>\ncomments on 25.02.2010 and 09.03.2010 respectively. CPIO, Shri Ashwani<br \/>\nKumar, SP (HQ), CBI has informed the Commission that, as suggested by OS<br \/>\n(Pers.I)\/CBI\/Head Officer\/New Delhi on 09.06.2009 the application of Shri Sethi<br \/>\nwas transferred to DoP&amp;T as, the enquiry reports in the disciplinary proceedings<br \/>\nhad already been sent by the inquiry officer to DoP&amp;T for a decision to be taken<br \/>\nat their end. The application of Shri Sethi was transferred to them on 11.06.2009<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                          1<\/span><br \/>\n u\/s 6(3) of the Act under intimation to the complainant and hence, there is no<br \/>\ndelay on the part of the CPIO, CBI in transferring\/ forwarding the application to<br \/>\nthe concerned public authority as per that provision of RTI Act.\n<\/p>\n<p>      On the other hand, CPIO, Shri Chandra Prakash, Under Secretary,<br \/>\nDoP&amp;T has informed the Commission of the reason for not responding to the<br \/>\nrequest of Shri Sethi stating that the letter dated 11.06.2009 of CPIO, CBI was<br \/>\nreceived and was returned to the CBI as per the record maintained in AVD-II<br \/>\nSection. The said reference of the CBI again came back to the department and<br \/>\nthis was marked to the deemed CPIO, Section Officer, AVD-II Desk on<br \/>\n05.08.2009 by the diarist but, as ascertained from the CPIO, the same reference<br \/>\nwas not physically received by him. The CPIO has described the disciplinary<br \/>\naction taken against those officials\/employees for the paper which was misplaced<br \/>\nand has assured the Commission that such incidents will not recur in future. He<br \/>\nhas however, stated that the information sought by complainant has been<br \/>\nprovided to him separately.\n<\/p>\n<p>                                    Decision<br \/>\n      From a perusal of the comments submitted by both the CPIOs, it is<br \/>\napparent that the action taken by the CPIO, CBI on the request of the<br \/>\ncomplainant is as per the provision of Section 6(3) of the Act and well within the<br \/>\ntime mandated for the same. However, the Commission observes default on the<br \/>\npart of the CPIO, AVD-II, Desk, DoP&amp;T while dealing with the application<br \/>\nreceived under RTI Act. The Commission views this seriously, but disciplinary<br \/>\naction as per Sec 20 (2) having already been taken hereby directs DoPT to<br \/>\nexercise greater care in processing such cases in future.\n<\/p>\n<p>      On the other hand it has been observed that the Complainant Shri Sethi,<br \/>\non not being provided with the desired records within the time mandated by law,<br \/>\ncould have preferred an appeal through the channel available to him u\/s Section<br \/>\n19(1) of the Act, which has not been done. As informed by the CPIO, DoP&amp;T, the<br \/>\ndesired documents have now been provided to the complainant separately.<br \/>\nNevertheless, if, he finds the response unsatisfactory, complainant may<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">                                         2<\/span><br \/>\n approach the 1st appellate authority of DoP&amp;T u\/s 19(1) of the Act, and<br \/>\n                                                                         st<br \/>\nconsequently if, not satisfied with the information provided on his 1 appeal,<br \/>\n                                                 nd<br \/>\ncomplainant Shri Sethi will be free to move a 2 appeal before us as per Sec 19<br \/>\n(3). The Registry of the Commission is hereby directed to send the copies of<br \/>\ncomments submitted by the CPIOs to the complainant together with this decision<br \/>\nnotice.\n<\/p>\n<p>          Announced this twenty ninth day of March 2010.
