On the representation by the PIO, the penalty will be set aside as RTI Act did not give any power to FAA or any other official to impose penalty. THis can be imposed by the Information Commissions only. This will prove a boon in the guise of cure for the PIO.
The appellant should file the appeal/complaint before the Information Commission and the penalty may be much higher there. Such penalty cannot be waived off by the Department as only the appeal will lie only the the juridictional High Court.
