Dear Col Khera

I am truly shocked by your email.

1)  With all this black money problem in the country, are you condoning that IRS officers should go on leave for extended periods and thereby block their replacements.

2) Arvind Kejriwal is a foreign financed intelligence operative with huge amounts of money at his disposal and gives lakhs of rupees as prizes. Why should we contribute to pay his IT demands ?

3) What exactly has Arvind done for the RTI cause which is so extraordinary ?

PS: Kindly stop using RSS code words on this group - we are apolitical here

Dear Friends,

In another Group, a mail is in circulation that we should contribute to generate money so that Arvind Kejriwal can pay up the money to the IT dept.

My view is that let Prashant Bhushan legally fight the case as his entitlements for his two years of leave of absence without pay should be counted towards the pay back in lieu of his resignation after three years of study leave. 

In the mean while, if Supreme Court accepts the plea, it is a victory for all those who might be affected by the vague Govt orders. If, however, Supreme Court rejects then lets all contribute as is being suggested by Santosh MS and enable him to pay to the Govt as every law abiding citizen must follow the rules and regulations. 

Arvind Kejriwal has contributed immensely to RTI and now for a strong Lok Pal. Most of India supports him in his tireless and selfless efforts. The contribution is not to help him monetarily but would only be a rebut to the Govt if indeed the state is victimizing him just because he has been digging his heals against them for anti corruption laws. Such a move has a potential for babus to show spine to the political leaders and not accept any wrong orders. This move alone would have a huge impact on the self reforms in babudom much more than all the Lok Pals.By this, I do not mean that Jan Lok Pal would not be necessary. 

This is a food for thought.

Jai Hind and Vande Matram.
 
With warm regards,

Col Mahesh Khera

Dear Agniswesh

1) I was NOT instrumental in bringing RTI. I played a very small role,
and I want no credit for it. If credit has to be given, I (from a
worm's eye view) would give it to Mr. A.N.Tiwari and his DoPT team ( a
group of honest and practical people) who wanted a STRONG RTI ACT to
bring about a STRONG BUREAUCRACY which is the best way to stop HIGH
LEVEL CORRUPTION by Ministers and Politicians.

2) If you want a LokPal Bill, even the Govt version is more than
sufficient for people who can use it well. Its weak people like ":Team
Anna" who need "strong" laws. Strong people can get by with "weak":
laws.

3) I have got more information using the weak and toothless Delhi RTI
Act than I ever got out of RTI Act 2005 (with all its notional
penalties) which Aruna Roy emasculated.

4) Today if you face a corrupt officer, just slap him or finish him
off - and be prepared to face the consequences. (I have slapped many
officers ... )

Re: [HumJanenge] Arvind Kejriwal - IT Notice

Good Work Sarabjit. As par your note, you were instrumental in bringing RTI.

Congratulations Man.

Now please move on. Step up and get Jan Lokpal, an institution which will work for the young generations.

Also work for the Electoral Reforms Act, which would be a game changer.


Please step up and stop mud slinging Team Anna... You are alone sufficient to bring the parliament down, with your choicest verbal use/abuses without being apologetic and sheer confidence.

We are with you. Hum Jaanenge aur Hum Jaan na chaahte hain..

Re: [HumJanenge] Re: DELHI PUBLIC SCHOOL ROHINI IS A PUBLIC AUTHORITY, CIC DECIDES

Dear Guptaji

CIC is NOT a Civil Court.

During Complaint process u/s 18 the CIC enjoys some limited POWERS of a civil court under CPC for receiving evidence.

Your real remedy for false evidence submitted on affidavit lies under Indian Penal Code and not CPC. The Superior courts are littered with false affidavits submitted by civil servents on behalf of their department. No court takes any cognisance of the "perjury" they contain. It is all part of the game, unless the untruths are palpably outrgeous / beyond all limits to lying.

SPEED POST

 

Shri Satyananada Mishra,

Chief Information Commission

New Delhi.

Date: 3.9.2011.

 

Sub:   Outright rejection of my application for taking action against the PIO, NSD, AIR for submitting false affidavits before Mrs. Annapurna Dixit, Information Commissioner in the hearing of my complaint.

 

Ref:    Case No. CIC/AD/A/2010/000144.

 

Hon'ble Sir,

 

          Mrs. Annapurna Dixit, Hon'ble Information Commissioner has rejected my application for making a complaint to a Magistrate of the first class having jurisdiction out rightly stating that the Commission does not have the jurisdiction to deal with criminal jurisprudence.  The application was submitted to make a complaint u.s. 340 of CrPC for the perjury committed by Shri D. K. Das, the CPIO by submitting false evidence in the form of three false affidavits. I am enclosing herewith a self-attested copies of my application dated 3.5.2011 and the IC's decision dated 25th August, 2011 rejecting my request for your ready reference. 

2.       The application has been rejected stating, "Commission does not have the jurisdiction to deal with criminal jurisprudence". According to section 340 CrPC, a Civil Court has jurisdiction to make a complaint as regards an abetment of any offence referred to in s. 195(1)(b). [please see enclosed page 522 of The Code of Criminal Procedure (15th Edition, 1997) by Justice Y V Chandrachud, former CJ, SC]. Under section 18 (3) of RTI Act, CIC has the same powers as are vested in a civil court while trying a suit under the Code of Civil Procedure while receiving evidence on affidavit. Para 2 of the CrPC, (page 522) states, "Any Civil Court can proceed under this section and hold preliminary inquiry". It should than record a finding, should itself make a complaint in writing and forward it to the first class Magistrate having jurisdiction.  Last two lines of para 3 on page 523 state, "An affidavit which is false is also covered in this section."  I am enclosing copies of page 521 to 523 for your ready reference.

3.       That the reason recorded in the decision itself is an error of law and fact and the Commission itself was not required to deal with the criminal jurisprudence but to make a complaint in writing to the First Class Magistrate after recording finding and send it to the Magistrate of the first class having jurisdiction in accordance with the Section 340 of CrPC.

4.       That non-action by the CIC against the production of false affidavits or other false evidences will open the floodgates of submitting the false evidences by the PIO's etc. as they will not have any fear of any action against them.

5.       Thus, the Hon'ble IC, Mrs. Annapurna Dixit has given erroneous decision by turning down my application to take action u.s. 340 of the CrPC. I, therefore, request you to revisit the decision and to make a complaint to the First Class Magistrate for the perjury committed by the CPIO so that the same is not repeated in future.

We are grateful to Mrs. Annapurna Dixit, Hon'ble Information Commission for her well reasoned, speaking and logical order of far reaching consequences.

Mohit Goyal also deserves Kudos for doing his home work well and citing around ten cases in support of his demand.  During the hearing, I noted that the IC has given the desired time and heard both the parties with ample patience and gave fair opportunity to plead.

This does not mean that all the decisions of IC, Mrs. Dixit's are of the satisfaction of the appellants.   If the appellants are not challenging these decisions in the High Court that is due to long, cumbersome and expensive route.  For an ordinary man, it is difficult to take recourse of this. 

I have list of some questionable decisions passed by the IC, Mrs. Dixit.  In the latest decision in the case No. CIC/AD/C/2010/000144, IC refused to make a complaint u.s. 340 of CrPC to the Ist class magistrate against the perjury committed by Shri D K Das, PIO, NSD, AIR by submitting three false affidavits before her during the hearings.  Non-action by the CIC against the production of false affidavits will open the floodgate of submitting the false evidences by the PIO's and other govt. officials as they will not have fear of any for the same. 

 

I shall share copy of my proposed letter to Shri Satyanand Mishra, Chief IC in the case by tomorrow.

 

Thus, every IC has some good and some sulking decisions in his/her kitty.

 

I propose that we should have a penal of some public spirited lawyers ready to take up such cases on a reasonable fee.

Re: [HumJanenge] Arvind Kejriwal - IT Notice

Dear Mr Devasahayam

I am confining myself to the Central RTI Act 2005. The facts are as follows

1) There were serious flaws in the FOI Act 2002 which rendered it weak and unimplementable.

2) Consequently the Rules for the said Act were not put in place to bring it into effect.

3) Immediately since 2003 a series of drafting exercises to amend / replace the FOI Act took place within DoPT. This exercise was carried out internally within DoPT (at which stage I and some other concerned private persons literally went over the drafts clause by clause to shoot down bizarre suggestions originating from NCPRI people and NAC interference and make valid suggestions). The DoPT had a core team ultimately under Mr Tiwari and he took a very keen interest in what was going on - literally he was the draftsman of this Act.

4) Finally when the Bill went to Parliament at the Committee stage the NCPRI and CHRI persisted with their nonsensical suggestions (like bring private companies within RTI etc), this did not work but about 30 modifications were made by Committee which watered down the Act. Finally when the Bill was put up in Parliament it was diluted even further (BJP had walked out) and the biggest prolem was that they added State Governments to RTI at last moiment which has caused many gray areas in the Act ("appropriate Govt" ??). I had no role to play while the Bill was in the Parliamentary process - since it was an all out war between DoPT babus and the NAC / NCPRI brigade.

5) Arvind Kejriwal had hardly anything to do / say in the formulation of RTI Act 2005 considering his seniors (!!!) in NCPRI.

6) The sitaution is analogous to the RTI Draft Rules contoversy of last year. NAC/NCPRI submitted aboiut 12 pages of text. The war is between DoPT and NAC/NCPRI. All my comments are in public domain (running into about 273 pages). My own "lobbying" can be inspected in DoPT. When the Rules finally come out (???) who will get the credit in the media - the foreign finaced haramis like Aruna Roy OR members of this hold-out group ?

Re: [HumJanenge] Arvind Kejriwal - IT Notice

This debate is turning bizare. Can some one enlighten us as to the true story behind the RTI Act and its real heroes and heroines?

Arvind had tendered resignation in  2006. He had gone on study
leave earlier  to that. He has  NOT been given/ taken  any pay
since  then. I  do understand,  IT is  taxes on  your physical
income, not perceived incomes by external agencies.

There are two issues here:

a) Administrative: If a resignation has been given, and it has
not been accepted for whatever reasons, the issue needs to be
dealt administratively, depending upon prevailing policies of
the Department. What has the IT Deptt doing for the last 5
years ? Why are they raking up this issue now ? And why are
departmental issues being placed as headlines ? Surely there
are some other ulterior motives ...

b) Financial: Tax is applicable if payment has been made. Has
the Govt been paying him regularly for all these years? If
yes, the IT claim is very much in order. But if not, no IT
accrues. There can be no taxes under situations where there is
no income.

Why mix the two things ?

This is departmental administrative issue. Why should the aam-
janta be concerned, beyond what he has already put up in all
major newspapers and his TV interview ?

I would not make much credence on posts on general public
mailing lists. Magasaysay awards are from Phillipines. All
personal assets of President Ramon Magsaysay are with the
Rockfeller Foundation. The prize was established in April 1957
by the trustees of the Rockefeller Foundation Fund based
in New York City with the concurrence of the Philippine
government. This is official. I do not know any CIA
connections here. The citation I put reference to is from the
wikipedia.

Please distinguish two things:

a) Public Action : Bringing public awareness/ and building
public pressures on the Govt to act.

b) Paper work : Drafting of the Act.

The contributions of those stated by me are for the former
action only. I can personally confirm the agitations taken by
Anna Hazare at Pune and Mumbai for the Maharashtra RTI Act,
last decade, having physically seen them. This public action
forced the Maharashtra Govt to Act. I would believe, this
action would be more difficult, and more important than
drafting the Act itself. In this regards their contributions
are minimal, restricted to a "wish-list" in layman's terms. I
would place less credits there. To the best of my knowledge,
the RTI Act 2005 is based on the preceding Maharashtra RTI
Act.

On a serious note: Requested, I may please be unsubscribed
from the "HumJanenge" mailing list. The kind of exchanges, and
language contained by some of the participants, (virtually
going onto personal vilification) does not gel with educated
gentry anywhere. I would like to leave.

I am truly shocked by your email.

2) Arvind Kejriwal is a foreign financed intelligence operative with huge amounts of money at his disposal and gives lakhs of rupees as prizes. Why should we contribute to pay his IT demands ?

Dear Friends,

In another Group, a mail is in circulation that we should contribute to generate money so that Arvind Kejriwal can pay up the money to the IT dept.

My view is that let Prashant Bhushan legally fight the case as his entitlements for his two years of leave of absence without pay should be counted towards the pay back in lieu of his resignation after three years of study leave. 

In the mean while, if Supreme Court accepts the plea, it is a victory for all those who might be affected by the vague Govt orders. If, however, Supreme Court rejects then lets all contribute as is being suggested by Santosh MS and enable him to pay to the Govt as every law abiding citizen must follow the rules and regulations. 

Arvind Kejriwal has contributed immensely to RTI and now for a strong Lok Pal. Most of India supports him in his tireless and selfless efforts. The contribution is not to help him monetarily but would only be a rebut to the Govt if indeed the state is victimizing him just because he has been digging his heals against them for anti corruption laws. Such a move has a potential for babus to show spine to the political leaders and not accept any wrong orders. This move alone would have a huge impact on the self reforms in babudom much more than all the Lok Pals.By this, I do not mean that Jan Lok Pal would not be necessary. 

This is a food for thought.

Re: [HumJanenge] Arvind Kejriwal - IT Notice

Dear all,

I support Mr Sarabjit in his view that Mr Arvind Kejriwal does not need to be monetarily supported. Though I object to the use of words like idiots and such by Mr Sarabjit for fellow members, I think he is right in his position that Mr Kejriwal has to defend himself in the court of law and his NGO also receives foreign funding (though I dont believe he is an intelligence operative of CIA or any other agency).

It is an accepted fact that the government action is a personal vendetta against him but I think he just needs moral support rather than monetary help. He has definitely done a lot for the RTI (even if not otherwise at least by creating awareness about it and handing out awards to people who are working in the field) but that does not mean he can't default. If he is right in his stand, the court would forego the dues, it's as simple as that.

Re: [HumJanenge] Arvind Kejriwal - IT Notice

Foreign country has given Magsaysay award to Shri Arvind Kejriwal for his contribution to the Society.  Our government has served a notice to give 9.16 from him after five years of his resignation. Govt was not only deep but was in long slumber too.

Some one may ask about the day to day movement of his case after Feb. 2006 (when he submitted his resignation) till date.  By this, we can know whether the notice is genuine or an act of venditta because of the activism of Shri Arvind. .

Dear Friends,

In another Group, a mail is in circulation that we should contribute to generate money so that Arvind Kejriwal can pay up the money to the IT dept.

My view is that let Prashant Bhushan legally fight the case as his entitlements for his two years of leave of absence without pay should be counted towards the pay back in lieu of his resignation after three years of study leave. 

In the mean while, if Supreme Court accepts the plea, it is a victory for all those who might be affected by the vague Govt orders. If, however, Supreme Court rejects then lets all contribute as is being suggested by Santosh MS and enable him to pay to the Govt as every law abiding citizen must follow the rules and regulations. 

Arvind Kejriwal has contributed immensely to RTI and now for a strong Lok Pal. Most of India supports him in his tireless and selfless efforts. The contribution is not to help him monetarily but would only be a rebut to the Govt if indeed the state is victimizing him just because he has been digging his heals against them for anti corruption laws. Such a move has a potential for babus to show spine to the political leaders and not accept any wrong orders. This move alone would have a huge impact on the self reforms in babudom much more than all the Lok Pals.By this, I do not mean that Jan Lok Pal would not be necessary. 

This is a food for thought.

Jai Hind and Vande Matram.

Re: [HumJanenge] Arvind Kejriwal - IT Notice

Col Khera's letter contains too many Ifs and Buts{I don't mean waggling Butts on Ramlila Maidan) So Kejriwal has to come out of the Ifs and Buts before we can accept the Team Anna's defence.

Dear Col Khera

I am truly shocked by your email.

1)  With all this black money problem in the country, are you condoning that IRS officers should go on leave for extended periods and thereby block their replacements.

2) Arvind Kejriwal is a foreign financed intelligence operative with huge amounts of money at his disposal and gives lakhs of rupees as prizes. Why should we contribute to pay his IT demands ?

3) What exactly has Arvind done for the RTI cause which is so extraordinary ?

PS: Kindly stop using RSS code words on this group - we are apolitical here
