Re: [HumJanenge] CPIO of Delhi MCD Penalized Rs.25,000/-

Dear Mr. Manoj

Thanks for circulating the case. In fact, I was present in the
hearing, as I had gone to meet Shailesh Gandhi during that time .
Mr. Gandhi requested me to wait for few minutes. I enjoyed his
hearing of this case and the logic put by him with reference to
sections of RTI Act. Though the said officer sought apology and
persuaded him not to impose penalty , Mr. Gandhi remained stubborn
and imposed penalty.
