[HumJanenge] Sucheta Dalal's email

Ms Sucheta Dalal has posted an email to some RTI groups with the title
"Re: Serious privacy breach by IC A.Dixit".

In her email she asserts that she is a friend of Central Information
Commissioner Shailesh Gandhi. But more importantly she attempts to
divert attention from the list of 40 names in the CIC proposed for the
5th RTI convention by the then CIC Wajahat Habibullah. Mr Habibullah
must explain why these names were posted to CIC website in
IC.Annapurna Dixit's name under "CIC Orders".

Let us have a few (say 1 from 2) of these.controversial names

1. Mr Jean Dreze
2. Dr Subir Gokarn
3. Prof Kaushik Basu
4. Mr Anand Mahindra
5. Mr Yogi Deveshwar
6. Mr Ratan Tata
7. Mr Mukesh Ambani
8. Mr O.P.Bhatt
9. Mr Gajendra Haldea
10. Mr S.K.Roongta
11. Mr N.R.Narayanmurthy
12. Mr Azim Premji
13. Mr Kumarmangalam Birla
14. Mr Rahul Gandhi
15. Ms Brinda Karat
16. Mr Arun Shourie
17. Smt Kanimozhi
18. Mr Vinod Mehta
19. Ms Shabana Azmi
20. Ms Nalini Singh

Can Smt Dalal identify even 1 clean person in this shortlist, which
lists people very well known to her personally, from the
"politician-media--industrialist nexus" lobby which Habibullah
repeatedly drags into the CIC  If not then why is she so quick to
divert attention from these names ? Considering her open friendship
with Shailesh perhaps Ms Dalal's name would be proposed to be a
speaker at the 6th RTI convention, right up there with Nira Radia's.
