Rti

I filled RTI Second appeal to CIC and which was received by CIC on 25.7.2012 after that i call many times to cic regarding my Request and every time they say we have so many pending applications so you should wait. even i write a mail on 1st June 2013 but no reply but when i checked on 5.8.2013 it was surprised that they announce the decision but i have no intimation received from CIC . NOw tell me what can i do furthere. for your reference i attached the decision of CIC and even this decision has not fruit ful to me because there is no time bound to First Appellate authority for reply.

I think the order is clear, you are to approach the First Appellate authority for your information. So approach the First Appellate authority, for seeking your information with the copy of the order of the CIC at the earliest.

why cic NOT impose ant plenty to CPIO AND FAA. It means i again send request to FAA who already not bothered. I already incurred postage expenses to CPIO and FAA and main thing i kill my one year for the reply.

Is there any legal solution so that i complain of CIC

You see section 20 of the RTI Act is there which speaks for penalty, but in very rare cases the CIC gives penalty. Since the CIC has asked you to approach the FA, approach the FA with a prayer for penalising the PIO with adequate compensation. In case you get the information, then also if you are willing to take this to a conclusive conclusion then approach the CIC for that non penalising of the PIO and compensation.
