Administrators Shrawan 823 Posted September 21, 2006 Administrators Share Posted September 21, 2006 Central Information Commission Decision No. 287/IC(A)/2006 F. No. CIC/MA/A/2006/00417 Dated, the 20th September, 2006 Name of the Appellant: Sh. A.J. Gedam, “Jagannathshreeâ€, 13-A, Vanjarinagar, P.O. Ajni, Nagpur – 440 003.

DECISION Facts of the case: The appellant, an employee of the Bank, had sought information relating to the disciplinary proceedings initiated against another lady officer, and the complaint filed by her against the appellant. The CPIO refused to furnish the information on the ground that information sought relate to another person, the disclosure of which is not in public interest. Hence, exempt u/s 8(1) (j) of the Act. The appellateauthority upheld the decision of the CPIO. Since there is no overriding public interest in disclosure of information sought, the denial of information by the CPIO u/s 8(1) (j) is justified. The appeal is accordingly dismissed. Sd/- (Prof M.

Popular Post Prasad GLN 1,759 Posted March 9, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted March 9, 2018 I have my own reservations against this decision. As a victim, every complainant has a right to know as to what happened to his complaint. Disciplinary proceedings once again varies from case to case. In a Bank, where trust is the key factor, larger public interest of public money is involved. In case of moral turpitude and personal disorders can certainly hamper public satisfaction. There is no hard and fast rule in such second appeals. The deficiency is with appellant, who has not established larger public interest. If properly presented, every issue involves some larger public interest. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Prasad GLN 1,759 Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 Another interesting CIC decision by Hon IC Bhargava in Harinder Dhingra Vs. Oriental Bank of Commerce on officers involved in Vijaya mallaya scam...IC upheld the denial stating that it may endanger the life of such corrupt officials. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
