problem in RTI application : non mention of RTI act-2005

Dear Mr.Rajeev Kumar, Your query is technically one, of course you might have forgotten to mention the Act which has sought the information but O.I. would not accept this reason if he is strict person. I thing by oversight you would have done it. However considering your application subject to the Information Officer discretion. He may or may not consider you application. It is my opinion view that 99% Information Officer has right to reject your application as incomplete in nature and he may send you the reply/counter letter to seek correct information on which Act you wanted the information. In normal Practice most of the officers won’t verify the same due to their busy schedule, some time in fluke incomplete application shall be accepted.

Dear Mr. Rajeev Kumar, even if you would have technically all right the public servants first search one pretext of the other to deny obeyance toward public service and here yourself have given a unexpected sweet dish to them so why they will not enjoy it?

 

In my view you immediately send another separate application.

DEAR   RAJEEV,        PLEASE      SEND        A    SEPARATE          APPLICATION    TO   THE     PUBLIC    INFORMATION      OFFICER     OF    THE    CONCERNED    DEPARTMENT              MENTIONING         RTI   APPLICATION    U/S     6    OF   THE    RTI   ACT,  2005.    

Dear Mr. Rajeev , I  do not agree with a view of my other friends.  In fact it is the duty of CPIO to guide and help in drafting the application.  you may go for appeal to next authority . It is duty of CPIO to inform you detail address of Authority to whom you may appeal.  RTI Act  give every citizen full right to know Hamara paisa hamara hisab,. There is no ground for CPIO to escap.

and fees for application under rti act 2005 in rs.10/-. (for appeal rs.20/-)

I have yet to see a PIO who gives correct information/reply.

yes, they can.

but so what?

file the same again with correction and as a a fresh application.

Mr.Rajiv Kumar, Let me to give a different opinion.

Eventhough you have not mentioned the name of the Act, under which you are seeking the information, the PIO cannot reject your application under the ground non mentioning of the name of the Act. Because you have addressed as " The Public Information Officer ".

The PIO is an authority appointed under RTI Act, 2005.

So I hope that the application addressed to the PIO automatically amounts that your application is under RTI Act, 2005.

 If information furnished above found to be incorrect by any expert please excuse me.

Thanking you.

In most cases, even when all the formalities are complete, infn /reply is not provided. The Appellate Authorities too are mute spectators. 2nd Appeals? Well a few years and you become too old to pursue.

I am thankful to every for replying my query. I am agreed that even application addressed to PIO will be considered under RTI, becuase post is created for implemention of RTI act.

I did not want to take risk, therefore, I have sent corrigendum with fresh re-drafted application. and mention that previous one application will be applicable. I removed the mistake through corrigendum.

Thannks again

warm regards

Rajeev
