[HumJanenge] Re: PUBLIC GRIEVANCE: RTI Public Hearing on 11.Oct.2012

Dear Mr Sarabjit

Excellent and bravo.
Your golden words will be framed and displayed on T-shorts at RTI conference.
few humble suggestions:

'CIC Satyananda is pet poodle of Aruna Roy who is pet poodle of Sonia'
'Save RTI feed the dogs'

BTW, has anyone notice Mr Kejrival's name has been deleted from "life
membership" of NCPRI on NCPRI website. All the rats are deserting the
sinking ship.

Respected Sir

I refer to the news report in the Hindustan Times concerning your
attendance at a so-called public hearing ("jan sunwai") called by some
NGOs omn Thus 11.Oct.2012 the day before the CIC's Convention.
http://www.hindustantimes.com/India-news/NewDelhi/Public-hearing-on-RTI-ahead-of-its-7th-anniversary/Article1-942230.aspx

The pendency at the CIC has rocketed out of all control under your
esteemed stewardship. The citizens are crying out for speedy hearing
and functioning Information Commissions and Commissioners.

Instead we have the unseemly spectacle of public servants bunking
their offices to waste time on jamborees and junkets organised by
professional RTI touts. Your association with such dubious people can
only tarnish your image while enhancing theirs.

The citizens, ie the stake holder who use RTI, like me are aggrieved
and desire to know why / how the same set of NCPRI persons who are
calling this "jan sunwai" meeting, Ms. Aruna Roy, Mr Wajahat
Habibullah, Mr. Venkatesh Nayak are also the only "private" persons
who are on the panels for the CIC's own RTI Convention thereafter year
after year.

Is the DoPT's and various State Govt budgeted funds to transport and
host Information Commissioners to Delhi for the CIC's RTI promotional
Convention being instead used to subsidise this Private enterprise ?

It is certainly a matter of great shame that you have apparently
accepted an invitation to attend a so-called jan sunwai organised by
the same NCPRI people who engineered the 500 word RTI rule on the
citizen stakeholders by misusing the office of the Chairperson NAC.

It is an even greater shame that you are attending a function
organised by the very same NGO which Mr. Shailesh Gandhi was the
convenor of prior to his becoming an Information Commissioner, and who
caused the abomination of the CIC's senior officers filing a Writ
Petition against him due to his corrupt and high handed ways, and
which has led to this present situation of the judiciary interfering
in the composition of the Commissions due to his idiotic decisions

It is a complete joke and fraud on the citizens, that whereas the
Chief Information Commissioner of India will attend like a pet poodle
when summoned to Ms. Aruna Roy's private jan sunwai bash, that only
Ms. Aruna Roy and her junior lap dogs (like Mr. Venkatesh Nayak) are
apparently the only citizens the CIC can find to speak from the panels
of the CIC's publicly funded conventions.

Sir, let us be very honest and admit that the CIC's annual RTI
Conventions (funded by the tax payer) are only organised every year so
that the NCPRI RTI touts (funded by Google, DFID, CIA etc and
patronised by the Chairperson NAC) can socialise with Information
Commissioners and carry on their RTI lobbying / spying business in
Info Commissions all over the country. Furthermore it is an open
secret that you personally have no say whatsoever either in running
the CIC or in selecting who the panelists / speakers will be, but that
your personal honesty and integrity is never in doubt

yours in disgust, etc etc.
