Complaint filed Against DC Office Poonch for non Compliance of RTI Act:
No
Proactive Disclosure Under RTI Act
Complaint filed Against DC Office Poonch
Jammu, 15/July/2020: A complaint
under section 18 of the Right to Information Act 2005 has been filed with the
Central Information Commission against
office of the Deputy Commissioner Poonch for its failure to make proactive
disclosure of Information which is compulsory to be made under section 4(1)(b)
of the RTI Act 2005.
RAMAN |
In his complaint before the CIC
dated 14/July/2020 vide diary no 677786, RTI activist Raman Sharma has
submitted that DC office Poonch, the respondent Public Public Authority was under
legal obligation as per section 4 of the Right to Information Act to
pro-actively disclose certain kind of information but unfortunately for the
reason best know to the respondent (DC Office), no such information was made
available pro actively for the public and people have to resort to file
individual RTI applications to even get
this information which otherwise should have already been in public domain and
innocent citizens are compelled to spend money and time to get this
information.
In the complaint it is further
stated that the Respondent P.A also have its dedicated website " POONCH.NIC.IN
“ but there also no information as mentioned under section 4 is published which
is clear violation of the Right to Information Act 2005.
Seeking directions for the
DC office Poonch, the RTI activist have requested the CIC to direct the
respondent to take necessary action and suo-moto disclose
all mandatory information as required under section 4 of the Right to
Information Act 2005 on its official website
and apprise the honourable CIC about the action taken thereof along with
a copy to the complainant.
Sharma also informed that Right to Information
Act casts an obligation on the Public Authority to publish pro actively information under
section 4(1)(b) within 120 days from the enactment of this act and as the Right
to Information Act 2005 is applicable in the Union Territory of J & K right from 31st
October 2019 after repeal of its
previous Jammu and Kashmir Right to Information Act 2009 thus DC Office Poonch
should have disclosed this information on its own.
The complaint also highlights the
inaction on the part of the respondent Public Authority that did not act as per
the mandate of the RTI Act and called it as deliberate attempt of the
respondent Public Authority to seize lawful right of the citizens of India.
