President of India Portal Rejoinder of My letter 22/04/2017

Sir,

With reference to the above I submit as under:-

S. No. Date Event Action

taken
1. 24.10.2016 The applicant files an application seeking relief that His majesty forwarded
the president of India is the appointing authority to both the
public sector insurance company and the central information
commission therefore the glass ceiling of corruption (that
enriches few elite officials including advocates) be broken
2. 7.12.2016 From Presidents Secretariat to DOPT forwarded
18.1.2016 From Under Secretary DOPT to director DOPT

3. 10.04.2017 DOPT reply that the decision of the Central Infromation Received
Commission is binding but challengeable in court. 21.04.2017

1. That there is a loophole in the reply of the DOPT. The applicant has deeply studied the history of
Writ Petitions as prevalent in the democratic nations. The Writ Petition is basically a relief to an
ordinary citizen who feels his rights are obstructed by a Govt/State Agency.
It cannot be vice-versa.
2. That there are targeted Writ Petitions filed by artificial authorities (of doubtful integrity, as

witnessed by applicant )intended to obstruct the Rights of living suffering ordinary citizen(s) :-
Stay order dated
1.12.2010
Secured on the argument
that GIPSA is a loose
association and eventually
GIPSA escapes accountability
under RTI act
9.04.2012
Stay orders sought by and
granted to artificial persons
against order of Union of India re-instated
(Ministry of Labour)
30.04.2014
Stay order to deny access of
information to applicant
Filed by Name of authority
GIPSA (a powerful association Delhi High Court W. P. C.
enjoys public money without 8041/2010
transparency) in secret
collusion with
(officially challenging) the CIC
NIACL Head office Mumbai Jaipur Bench Rajasthan High
and Regional Office Jaipur insist Court Civil Writ Petition
that applicant was already 4007/2012
NIACL Dy GM escapes the Bombay High Court Civil Writ
charges of embezzlement of Petition 429/2013
public money, though he was
called upon to attend video
conference from Mumbai,he
took tour by air. Promoted as
GM after securing stay orders.

3. In view of the above the applicant dreams of a day when the office of the President of India
interferes to ensure that Writ Petitions are not abused as a relief to corrupt/doubtful
integrity public servants at the cost of those who struggle for survival (e.g. the applicant who
was never ever promoted despite his services of two decades without stigma, finally on
24 February 2008 he was informed of the intended dismissal:-

Re: - Citizens petition against unconstitutional in-equality in public life:

With reference to the above as an honest and law abiding citizen of India I
complain that institutional corruption/abuse of public money that causes
enrichment of a few powerful officials continues since last decade in the
NIACL while the CIC is extremely biased to see to it that Right to
information is prerogative of a few elite

That the shocking bias favouring the powerful and denying to a common
citizen is reflected in the following:-

Central information Commission order CIC finding 3/01/2011

Applicant: S.S Hira on behalf of NIACL (* Public interest All information
The New india Assurance Co. Ltd) be disclosed
(Appeal No.CIC/LS/A/2010/001130DS) RTI To CBDT
13/10/2009

Vis-a- vis

Central information Commission order CIC finding 9/09/2016

II appeal against abuse of public Diversion of No need of
money by few elite officials of the public disclosure
NIACL they habitually enjoyed tour by resources
air for 4 years; CIC notice was merely
to attend video conference
(Appeal No.CIC/YA/A/2014/000226 RTI 27/8/2013 To CIC
SB)

The consequences are that Oligarchy rights of elite NIACL are absolute
while the right of a humble citizen of India,despite RTI, is fragile.
As his majesty the president of India is the appointing
authority of chairman of NIACL,a PSU ;also As per RTI Act,
CIC is appointed by the President, it is prayed that
glass
ceiling of apathy to corruption (that enriches few
elite officials including advocates) be broken so that
probity and transparency in public life be ensured.
Thanking you.

Re: Appeal under the Right to Information Act 2005 RTI application dated
27/08/2013*

With reference to letter No. CIC/CPIO/2013/1213-DS dated 03/10/2013* issued

by CPIO T. K. Mohapatra the appeal is filed as per the following:

1. The CPIO ,CIC reply that the information of call letters issued by CIC to New
India Assurance Co. Ltd (NIACL) is not maintained is vague and evasive. It
is a matter of record that call letters have been issued by CIC to CPIO and
FAA of NIACL, an insurance company,a public authority in terms of the RTI
act as the applicant himself has appeared during last about 4 years about
10 times or more following the video conference call letters issued by CIC
2. The appellant submits that all the information desired by him is within the
computerized record of CIC,the CPIO has to search with the name of public
authority and the details of call letters issued to NIACL for the desired
period shall be easily available.
3. The information desired is in utmost public interests ,it is directedly related
to abuse of public money of CPIO/FAA/representative of NIACL who
deliberately misread the notice of CIC to appear by way of video
conference, instead, they spend average public money of about Rs. Twenty
five thousand on each occasion to claim unnecessary tour on personal visit
to CIC. Example: on 15.07.2013 four different officers of NIACL appeared in
person to cause loss of about Rs. One lakh of public money.
