Prayer- Public information officer Denied
information by taking recourse of Rule 4(2)(a). First April authority did not
entertain the appeal so action must be taken both public information officer
and first appellate authority.
Short submissions of the appellant
are as follows.
1- Most respected sir public
information officer in the office of subdivisional magistrates Sadar denied
information as follows. Section 4 (2) (a) of UTTAR PRADESH RIGHT TO INFORMATION
RULES, 2015
Any request for obtaining
information under the Act should fulfil
the following conditions: The information sought should be a part of
the record held by or under the control of the public authority concerned.
REQUEST REJECTED as on 23/10/2024
Reason for Rejection :- Rule
4(2)(a).
2- It is quite obvious that the
public information officer denied the information by taking the recourse of
Section 4 (2) (a) of UTTAR PRADESH RIGHT TO INFORMATION RULES, 2015.
3- The appellant is submitting the
same pdf document which was earlier submitted by the appellant during the
submission of the RTI application on the RTI portal of the government of Uttar
Pradesh.
4- These 5 pages of the attached pdf
document are the new transfer policy of the government of Uttar Pradesh
forwarded by the government to entire public authorities working under the
supervision of government of Uttar Pradesh.
5- From the status of the following
online RTI application, it is quite obvious that the appellant submitted the
online RTI application on 8th August 2024 Which was forwarded to the concerned
public information officer on 13th August 2024 and denied information on 23/10/2024
which means more than 2 months and 12 Days passed. Thus we see that the public
information officer violated subsection 1 of section 7 of the right to
information act 2005 so action must be taken against the public information
officer under section 20 of RTI Act 2005 for violating the provisions of RTI
Act 2005
6- Thus we see that denial of
information by the public information officer of Tehsil Sadar by taking the
recourse of the Section 4 (2) (a) of UTTAR PRADESH RIGHT TO INFORMATION RULES,
2015 is arbitrary and illegal.
7-Undoubtedly it is a precarious
situation that the public information officer in the office of Sub divisional
Magistrate Sadar Mirzapur could not understand the RTI application and rejected
the application arbitrarily on the flimsy ground which is a mockery of the
provisions of right to information act 2005.
8-The Right to information act 2005
was introduced by the government of India to promote transparency and
accountability in the working of the public authorities but because of
corruption in the public offices provisions of this act are being violated time
and again by the public information officers.
9- The appellant sought following 4
points information from the public information officer in the office of
subdivisional magistrates Sadar district Mirzapur which was denied by him.
1- Provide the posting
details of all the first class and second-class employees of the department,
the date on which they started service in Mirzapur district and for how long
they have been posted, where was their first posting.
2- Sir, please provide the posting details of
all the third-class employees of the department and the details of the date of
commencement of their service in the district and other posting related
details, Sir, also provide that from which district they have come to Mirzapur
after being transferred.
3- Sir, the posting
details of all the class IV employees of the department posted in the district
and the details of the date of commencement of service in the district and if
they have been transferred from other districts to this district, then also provide
the details of that.
4- Sir, please provide to
the applicant whether the new transfer policy issued by the state government is
being followed in the department or not and if it is being followed, then how
has it happened till date, with the step-by-step efforts taken in that
direction, the applicant must be informed.
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.
Date-04/11/2024 Yours sincerely
