GROUNDS OF FIRST APPEAL: 1. The PIO has declined information against point no. XX of the RTI application by merely quoting the exemption to information under section 8(1)(j) of the RTI Act, 2005 without giving meaningful justification for arriving at that reason for denial. This is against letter and spirit of RTI Act. Please find the following persuasive precedents wherein the concerned authorities have ruled that merely quoting the bare clause of the Act does not imply that the reasons have been given: DECISIONS OF THE CENTRAL INFORMATION COMMISSION (CIC) IN THIS REGARD:2 likes

IBA is just an Association of member banks, and a spokes person. Their role is limited as spokesperson of the banks, and IBA is not empowered to exercise any control and at the most issue guidelines as circulars and can not issue directives. I have not come across single instance wherein IBA's involvement was mentioned in recruitment policy of Indian Banks either PSU or Private Banks. Many private members are not even members of IBA.

Inform to FAA immediately posting such evidence and seek another date for hearing with advance intimation of one week for making arrangements and schedule. Do not take everything so seriously, and avail opportunity of first appeal hearing and try to get information during first appeal itself. Second appeal hearing takes time, and decision is uncertain, and information with such delay may not serve any purpose. A sensible FAA can not reject your request and even if he takes a decision, it must be on facts of grounds stated in First Appeal. When First appeal hearing is not mandatory, this m1 like

Instances that involve disclosure of sensitive information, it may be rationale for the CPIO to ask for citizenship proof
Priya De posted a topic in RTI in Media,
Instances that involve disclosure of sensitive information, it may be rationale for the CPIO to ask for citizenship proof
Information Commissioner Divya Prakash Sinha held that seeking citizenship proof in case of demand of sensitive information is justified but seeking a signed copy of the application does not seem appropriate as the online portal does not mandate uploading of signatures.
Sinha was hearing the plea of an Odisha-based RTI applicant who had sought from the Army information regarding implementation of rules under the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013 in all defence establishments.
The Army did not provide any information to the applicant, the CIC noted. Akhand approached the Commission with a complaint that the central public information officer (CPIO) of the Army has demanded a signed copy of his online RTI application as well as identity proof before providing him the records.
“In this regard, it may be noted that as far as CPIO’s request for citizenship proof is concerned, the same is not questioned as Commission in its prior decision(s) has held the view that Armed Forces stand on a slightly different footing as there may be instances that involve disclosure of sensitive information, and for such reasons it may be rationale for the CPIO to ask for citizenship proof,” Sinha noted.

CIC rules positively on stale masked FII data release
murgie posted a topic in Post your RTI Success here,
Some of you -- at least CJ Karira, who helped me years ago in one crucial step, getting SEBI to acknowledge its own circular! -- know of a 15-year quest among desi academics to get SEBI to release its stale masked FII data for academic research. At one point years ago a parliamentary query by Shyam Benegal, then Rajya Sabha MP, sought the release of this data for academic research. He then made a subsequent RTI query asking what had done about his complaint about the terrible answer he got to his parliamentary question. We thought we had succeeded when in response to that SEBI did put in public domain that FII data and promised to update. And to their credit, they did update it from time to time, even if a bit fitfully. But thanks to a question by a curious IIT-Madras undergrad, we realized that what SEBI gave with one hand they took away with another. While the idea was that the FII IDs would be masked to preserve privacy, without telling anyone, SEBI changed the masks each month, drastically reducing the value for academic research (since you can't even tell how many distinct FIIs are there in the data base, and whether anyone traded over time). It also caused mistakes in academic research since no one imagined that SEBI would use changing masks, when no other regulator or exchange on the planet does so.
To get SEBI to finally agree to not hide by changing masks, but to keep a stable mask, has taken many years. But at least per the ruling received yesterday, it has been achieved, with no violence to anyone. I attach the ruling. I can also post the various submissions made at the Second Appeal hearing if there is any interest (need to scrub email-IDs, per the policy of this site).
Addendum_To_CIC_2nd_appeal_28th_February_2020.pdfThis RTI site, in particular Karira-ji, has been very helpful to me in the course of this long episode thru countless RTI queries. And I am grateful for that from the bottom of my heart. I am confident we will see quite a few PhD dissertations using this database within the next few years.
