0 Popular Post Prasad GLN 1,626 Posted May 13 Popular Post Share Posted May 13 Under RTI Act the only right a citizen is having is for information that is not exempted alone and for further appeals under RTI. Imposing penalty against CPIO is absolute discretion of the Information Commissioner, a citizen has no right to demand for such penalty. If the problem is with information writ is the final remedy against IC decision. If for imposing penalty, HC may consider it but HC can not take any action against IC. Waiting since 14 years for correct interpretation of the penalty clause and if some one gets that imposing penalty for violation is mandatory to impose penalty, the enactment of RTI is most successful. No court accepts suits on decisions/orders under RTI and all officials are immune under RTI for their legitimate actions taken in good faith. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
