Dear Sanjay,
Any citizen of india can ask for any information from any public authority.
But the kind of questions which you want to ask may not elicit proper response and the authorities would claim privilege not to disclose at this juncture.

Devajyoti Barman (Expert) 17 November 2010
No unless you are a party to it or the person against whom the investigation is going on gives consent for such information.
