This query is : Resolved
I filed a request u/s 6 of RTI Act for information related to self disclosure of information by PIO, District collectoarte janjgir.
PIO did not replied within 30 days of the stipuated time limit aggrived by the same, i prefered first appeal u/s 19(1) of RTI Act before FAA, District collectoarte janjgir.
FAA just sent information for first appeal hearing after the hearing. no further order sheet or any information received by PIO or FAA, District collectoarte janjgir.
Agrived by the inaction of the First Appellate Authority i prefered second appeal before the CG SIC, raipur u/s 19(3) of RTI Act, through speed post.
CG SIC was not registering my second appeal u/s 19(3) so i applied to PIO, CG SIC, raipur for status of my appeal and then they considered my second appeal and registered it which was acknoledge by me through the phone to PS of state information commissioner that my case i now registered.
On the date of hearing i sent written argument for my second apppeal.
To my surprise when i gone through the order sheet of the second appeal i found that SIC has dismissed my case and mentioned in order sheet that the appellant has confirmed through phone that he has received the reply of rti from SIC and his case is registered now so we are dismissing the same.
I want to lodge a writ in HIgh Court kindly guide

Yes, you should do this as a great mischief seems to have been played.
Do highlight this lie in the writ petition.

No other alternate but to approach High Court.

The telephonic confirmation cannot be held as a valid evidence, if at all the state authorities are trying to play a safe drama that way, a writ petition to show their skin color will be the good remedy, do it, let the matter be decided by the high court and if it is decided in your favor, this will be a lesson to all the erring officials.
