Consequently, the public information officer, deputy director of Agriculture District Mirzapur violated subsection 1 of section 7 of the right to information act 2005.

4-It is quite obvious that whatever information is being sought by the appellant concerns the deep-rooted corruption in providing the PM Kisan Saman Nidhi to the beneficiaries. The public information officer deputy director of Agriculture District Mirzapur is not providing information to the appellant to conceal its corruption, but he must know that right to information act 2005 was introduced by the government of India to promote transparency and accountability in the working of public authorities so that rampant corruption in the working of public authorities may be controlled.

5-This is a humble request of the appellant to the respected state information commissioner to direct the public information officer, deputy director of Agriculture District Mirzapur to provide the information to the appellant. Since the public information officer, deputy director of Agriculture district- Mirzapur violated subsection 1 of section 7 of the right to information 2005 so pecuniary penalty must be imposed under section 20 of the right to information act 2005 against him.

6- The appellant sought following information from the public information officer.

This is a humble request of your applicant to you Hon'ble Sir that how can it be justified to withhold public services arbitrarily and promote anarchy, lawlessness, and chaos arbitrarily by making the mockery of law of land? There is need of the hour to take harsh steps against the wrongdoer to win the confidence of citizenry and strengthen the democratic values for healthy and prosperous democracy. For this, your appellant shall ever pray for you, Hon’ble Sir.
