CABST/E/2012/00216 Message-ID: *To:* Shri Alok Chaturvedi Nodal Officer and Joint Secretary Cabinet Secretariat Rashtrapati Bhawan, New Delhi 21-April-2013 Sir *Sub: PUBLIC GRIEVANCE ** **CABST/E/2012/00216 received on 26.06.2012 *I refer to the above mentioned reference number generated in response to my complaint against Mr. Ajit Seth (Union Cabinet Secretary).* *It is a matter of regret that your Department / Secretariat is unable to reply to me concerning serious allegations I made against Mr. Ajit Seth and which I am not prepared to withdraw and am quite interested in prosecuting. *In view of the non-reply from your side to a duly registered grievance which is supposed to be disposed off within 2 months, I am now caused to say that Mr.Ajit Seth is a corrupt officer and nothing but a corrupt officer and the only reason he was appointed as the Cabinet Secretary is because he is a dishonest person appointed to perpetuate frauds on eminent citizens like myself and the ordinary citizens who use RTI in general. * It is certainly strange that the Cabinet Secretariat has been unable to reply to me for over 9 months now or resolve my grievance. It is noteworthy that Mr. Ajit Seth had also previously ignored 2 emails of notice I had sent him before lodging my referred public grievance. I am therefore calling upon you to either redress my grievance forthwith by appointing me as a Central Information Commissioner (there are 4 vacant slots), or else grant me statutory permission / sanction to prosecute Mr Ajit Seth under the Prevention of Corruption Act or any other similar Law. I am now not interested in any other sham resolution which I apprehend shall be palmed off on me to close this grievance. I am also circulating this email to many public mailing lists so that the public at large can know the truth behind the appointment of pliable Central Information Commissioners who are invariably retired public servants. It is an open secret that Mr. Basant Seth was appointed as Information Commissioner because he was heading a Karnataka (Manipal) based Bank and close to the Bellary Brothers who were Ms. Sushma Swaraj's campaign managers in Karnataka at some point in time and consider her to be their "godmother". For your ready reference I am attaching the PDF of the present status of my said public grievance. Kindly acknowledge receipt of this communication and the action taken thereon. yours faithfully *Sarbajit Roy* National Convenor India Against Corruption, jan andolan B-59 Defence Colony New Delhi 110024 Tel 09311448069 ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Date: Tue, Jun 26, 2012 at 4:25 PM Subject: Online Grievance registration To: sroy.mb at gmail.com * Dear Sir/Madam, * Your Grievance has been registered vide Registration number *CABST/E/2012/00216 *.Please quote the same in your future correspondance.

Gupta, Joint Director P&S/CPIO, Directorate of Purchase and Stores, Vikram Sarabhai Bhawan, Anushakti Nagar, *Mumbai-400094* Date: 27.04.2013 *Subject: Your letter DPS/JD/RTI-09(168)/2013/555 dated 19.04.2013* By your letter above mentioned you have again requested me to visit the Directorate at Mumbai with prior appointment for inspection of the records despite my previous objection to this. Please note that your offer to merely provide me inspection of a few records at Mumbai, which records also you are not prepared to list out for me in advance, does not meet my requirements, since the *form* of information access I have requested the information to be provided to me is in the form of authenticated / true copy(s) of such records as have been very well specified by me and are very well known to you. Please refer my previous letter whereupon I had specifically called upon you to confirm if it was your case that the information I had requested was voluminous in nature and would disproportionately divert your dept's resources. I had also requested you to provide me a list of documents which would be provided to me along with the number of pages which I would be given inspection of (which is the primary duty of the PIO). I observe that you have neither been able to confirm that the information is voluminous etc., nor have you provided me the list of information which you hold and shall disclose to me. Accordingly, I am caused to believe that you are in league with certain anti-national mafias (*controlled from Pakistan*) who are looting your department with impunity, so as to lure me to Mumbai under the pretext of providing me information there. I therefore call upon you to immediately provide me (within 14 days of my letter) by Registered Post the duly authenticated photo-copies of all the files (complete in all respects) which the Honourable CIC had directed is to be given to me vide order dt 08.03.2013 in F.No. CIC/SM/A/2012/001398. *You may particularly take note that you are in wilful breach/disobedience of a clear direction issued by a public servant acting under his lawful powers directing you to provide me the said information within 10 working days, after all your frivolous objections and denials were dismissed in appeal, and which has attained FINALITY.* Also take notice that I believe that anti-national officers like yourself, acting as puppets of the nation's enemies, ought also to be reported to the National Investigation Agency (or other specialist bodies) and I shall do so if you persist with your corrupt and mis-conductive ways and don't provide me the information in hardcopy and forthwith as was directed. Due to the threat perception from you and your conspirators, I am circulating this email widely throughout the nation to anti-corruption activists, and with copies to all the Senior Govt functionaries, including your Dept’s Minister and the Secretary over the "NICNET" so that the true state of affairs inside the Dept of Atomic Energy is known.

Bhanot) Date: Tue, 30 Apr 2013 21:40:41 +0530 Subject: [NICnet] [IAC] Information sought under Right to Information Act 2005 In-Reply-To: References: Message-ID: *eDOCUMENT* *URGENT* *30 April 2013* *N.K. Gupta *Central Public Information Officer & Joint Director, P&S Directorate of Purchase & Store, Vikram Sarabhai Bhavan, Anushaktinagar, Mumbai – 400 09 *Dear Sir,* I take this opportunity to intervene in the matter (as the same is in the public domain now) of* *Dr. Sandeep Kumar Gupta, 1778. Sector 14, Hisar, Haryana125001 Appellant Versus Central Public Information Officer, Directorate of Purchase & Store, Vikram Sarabhai Bhavan, Anushaktinagar, Mumbai – 400 094 Respondent Public Authority in* Case No. CIC/SM/A/2012/001398 decided on 08 March 2013 by *Hon’ble Satyananda Mishra, Central Chief Information Commissioner. In this case* *in para 6 of the order had ordered, besides other, that: *“We direct the CPIO to revisit the entire set of records relating to this particular transaction and to provide to the Appellant the copies of all those records within 10 working days of receiving this order unless he has reason to believe that looking to the volume the records, the collection and disclosure would result in disproportionate diversion of their resources. In the latter case, while providing any of the information, he can invite the Appellant to inspect the entire records. We also direct him to inform the Appellant about any action the Directorate might have ever taken against this particular firm and provide the copies of the relevant records.”* These directions of the commission have certainly not followed in toto. Rather the CPIO has making the “*inspection*” as a tool to avoid parting with information. This is a very sad state of affairs at this public authority in particular and in other Public Authorities in general. *Moreover, nowhere the Right to Information Act 2005 says that the Commission or the Central Public Information Officer or the Public Authority can invite the Applicant to inspect the record. Inspection is the sole prerogative of the Applicant under Section 2(j)(i) or as per Explanation to Section 4 of the Right to Information Act 2005. Commission cannot force the information seeker to resort to the inspection. It is the sole choice of the information seeker to go in for inspection. If information seeker does not choose the inspection route, there is nothing that can force him/her to resort to that.* In the repeated request to the Central Public Information Officer of Directorate of Purchase & Store, Vikram Sarabhai Bhavan, Anushaktinagar, Mumbai has been repeatedly asking the information seeker to visit Mumbai and inspect the record even if the information seeker has expressed his fear to his life and liberty if he choose to carry out the ‘impugned’ inspection. PIO has not quelled the fear of the information seeker. Rather Central Public Information Officer is stressing upon the inspection. Central Public Information Officer is targeting many scenarios. One, CPIO is shooing away the information seeker with the fear of life and liberty. Second CPIO is gaining the gaining vital time to fiddle with the records. Third, he need not to give information till he is forced to through his nose. Secondly, the conduct of Mr. *N.K. Gupta Public Information Officer & Joint Director, P&S*, Directorate of Purchase & Store, Vikram Sarabhai Bhavan, Anushaktinagar, Mumbai – 400 094, is arrogant and not of being an Public Servant of the Public Authority, as is evident from his letter (email of Tue, Apr 30, 2013 at 5:08 PM *Subject*: [IAC] Information sought under Right to Information Act 2005 to the mailing list: india.lists.resist.ca *Filter messages from this mailing list *mailed-by: lists.resist.ca from his email id - *nkgupta at dpsdae.gov.in* via lists.resist.ca reply-to: India Activists Collective india at lists.resist.cato: drsandgupta at gmail.com with cc to the following email ids: pradeep at barc.gov.in, india at lists.resist.ca, khopkar at dpsdae.gov.in, skm at dae.gov.in, ashrivas at dpsdae.gov.in, admo3 at dpsdae.gov.in, nicnet at lists.resist.ca, s.mishra at nic.in Your use of the language *- “serious, baseless and malicious allegations against a public authority and distorted the facts by saying that information has been denied to you as directed by CIC vide their order No. CIC/SM/A/2012/001398 dated 08th March 2013”* – can be termed as a sheer act of superiority and beyond your authority as a Central Public Information Officer In fact your (Mr. N.K. Gupta) own conduct is illegal (as per Right to Information Act 2005 as well as with respect to the above cited order of the commission; and amounts to “*misconduct*” as per the service rules applicable on you. The arrogance has gone into you head and you are openly deifying the law. Not only this, you are threatening the information seeker *“Your intent to malign the department by baseless allegations and usage of unparliamentarily language against a public authority may lead to initiation of legal action by the Department”*. It is time that you may behave and provide the certified copy of the desired file to the information seeker for which the commission has already ordered you to provide within 10 days from the date of receipt of order. The information seeker has already refused to carry out the inspection, and he is within his right to do so. You have not, at any stage, invoked the provisions of Section 7(9) of the Right to Information Act 2005; and you cannot do that at this stage now.
