[HumJanenge] URGENT: Public Grievance about your skewed causelist for 07-Aug-2012

To:
Shri Satyananda Mishra
Chief Information Commissioner of India
Central Information Commission
August Kranti Bhawan
New Delhi

06-08-2102

Respected Sir

Regretably I am caused to send another urgent public grievance to you today.

Certain members of the public have complained to me, in my capacity as
moderator of HumJanenge RTI mailing list, about your cause-list for
07-08-2012 as published on website of the Hon'ble Commission, asking
me to represent collectively our grievance.

It appears that your entire day shall be dedicated to hearing cases of
Mr. Subhash Chandra Agrawal, a habitual RTI misuser, who is clogging
up the Central Information Commission with his numerous
frivolous appeals and complaints. It is an open secret that Mr.
Agrawal is quite well off and can indulge in his hobby for luxurious
RTI-ing and deriving personal publicity thereby. It may be considered,
however, that there are hundreds of poor and middle class persons
whose sole / few cases at CIC have been pending for about 3 or 4 years
unheard while Mr. Agrawal's cases being heard tomorrow even include
matters of April 2012..

I would be obliged if the contents of my previous paragraph are
strongly conveyed by you to Mr. Agrawal and possibly reproduced
in-toto in your decision in his matters. There is also the small
matter that Mr. Agrawal continually neglects to affix the Court Fee
stamps prescribed for 2nd Appeals to the
Hon'ble Commission under the Court Fee Act, to his memorandums of
appeal. In the process even this trivial revenue of only a rupee or 2
due to State has been avoided by him. In the circumstances why the
Registry allows such cases to be listed for hearing is a mystery
begging to be solved, and especially.in appeals involving the Hon'ble
Supreme Court of India's CPIO.

I also beg you to consider the alarming increase in pending cases at
the Commission. At the current rate of disposal, the backlog shall
take about 18 months to clear (extrapolating from 28,000 pending
matters and a disposal rate of 1,800 matters per month).

Sir, the website of the Commission is in a shambles. FIles are not
properly indexed. The search system is non-existent. Crucial sections,
regularly monitored by interested citizens, are not updated for months
at a time. As a result it often appears that there is no
accountability in the Commission. As I have previously highlighted,
all these shortcomings can be laid at the doorstep of Mr. Pankaj
Shreyaskar/Joint Registrar who has deliberately allowed this state of
affairs to come to pass to cover up the rotten state of the CIC
Registry.

Sir, kindly take some drastic steps to stem the rot. Mr. Shreyaskar
ought to do his allocated work instead of focussing on unproductive
events like the CIC's Annual RTI conventions.

With best wishes

Sarbajit Roy
