2. Appellant through his RTI application sought to know following information: Whether Delhi Jal Board Water is supplied at Street noS. 1,2,3,4,5,6,6a,6b,7,8 & 9 in Dada Chatrewala Marg, Raj Nagar. If so, time of water supply, name of the tube well operator, name of Junior Engineer looking after the tubewell etc. PIO gave point wise information.
CIC/SA/A/2014/001779 Page 1 Unsatisfied with the information provided, appellant made First Appeal. On not receiving any reply from the FAA, appellant approached the Commission. DECISION:
3. Both the parties made their submissions. The appellant submitted that he could not get proper information from the respondent authority. The respondent officer submitted that the information has to be given by the revenue wing of their Department. The practice of disposal of RTI applications in their department is that there is a nodal officer who is Secretary of the Delhi Jal Board, who the RTI application received by him uploaded into their official website, and all the PIOs of their department are supposed to verify the website and download the RTI applications concerning their division and reply to the appellant directly. Therefore, as the respondent officer is dealing with engineering division of their department, he is not aware of the case. The appellant submitted that the revenue wing of the DJB which was addressed by him, did not provide any information.
