[HumJanenge] VIGILANCE PETITION : Concerning Shri Amarjit Singh (Under Secretary) & CPIO

To:
Shri Alok Kumar
Chief Vigilance Officer/Ministry of Personnel

BY EMAIL

19-April-2011

Sir

I am caused to complain that the following officers of your Ministry
have corruptly accepted illegal gratification on behalf of one Mr.
"Anna" Hazare and his associates to not discharge their official
duties to provide me information I demanded from them under the
statutory process of Right To Information Act 2005 (section 4). It is
pertinent that I sought to know why Mr Anna Hazare and his associates
were favoured over me for appointment to a Committee for drafting
Central Lok Pal Bill falling under your Ministry's subject allocation.

1) Mr Amarjit Singh (Under Secretary AVD-IV)/CPIO
2) Mr K.G.Verma / Director RTI
3) Mr. Rajiv Kapur / Joint Secretary AT&A

I am appending inline the messages I sent to all of the above on
11-April-2011 and earlier which is self explanatory.

I request you to kindly take all necessary measures to ensure that the
above officers carry out their duties in a honest manner. I am ready,
able and willing to provide any further assistance and clarifications
you may require. I would be obliged if you would kindly acknowledge
receipt of this email.

Yours faithfully

To:
Joint-Secretary / ATA/ DoPT (and public grievance officer) for necessary action

Sir,

I refer to the rejection (truncated) email below.

I am now aggrieved that the duly designated/notified CPIO under you is
refusing to accept / rejecting my RTI related email as below. I have
obtained (by faithfully copy-pasting) the email ID of the CPIO from
the persmin website today.

Please ensure that I receive the demanded information immediately so
as to resolve my grievance as I am concerned that this is a systemic
failure and not individual one.

NB: Apparently cc's of the said bounced email have been received by
Dir/RTI and Dir/Admin of DoPT without bouncing back..

Yours faithfully

Sir

I refer to recent media reports concerning the purported setting up of
Committee(s) for Central Lok Pal legislation referring *inter-alia* to the
unprecedented step of including various members of public / civil society in
it. I also refer to questions answered in Lok Sabha during the past 1 year
by the Hon'ble MoS/DoPT on the status of Central Lok Pal legislation. In the
interest of brevity I am not specifying these reports/questions since these
are matters of record.

Accordingly, I am caused to *DEMAND* the following information be *
DISSEMINATED* suitably to me free of cost in the electronic form *
IMMEDIATELY* to safeguard my Fundamental Rights listed in the Constitution
of India. I am given to understand from the Persmin website today that you
are the dealing CPIO for "Central Lok Pal legislation".

NB: As this is a DEMAND for information dissemination u/s 4(4) r/w
sub-sections 4(1)(b), 4(1)(c), 4(1)(d) and 4(3) of RTI Act 2005, I am not
required to pay the Rs.10 application fee prescribed for "requests" for
information made u/s 6(1) of RTI Act.

Information required

1) Copy of all notifications or orders or circulars or any other official
communication constituting committee(s) / council(s) / board(s) by whatever
noun or description etc in connection with
a) the formulation (incl. drafting) of Central Lok Pal legislation, or
b) advising on the formulation of Central Lok Pal legislation,
as the case may be.

2) All relevant facts concerning the formulation of the Central Lok Pal
legislation.

3) Provide reasons why I was not appointed / nominated to the said
committee(s) / council(s) / boards(s) etc.. I say that I am an affected
person for this limited purpose. In the alternative the reasons why a few
other members of the public / civil society (if any) were appointed /
nominated may be disseminated to me.
