[HumJanenge] Irresponsible Act of Information commissioner Sri Jagadananda towards Appellant/Complainant

 

Dear friends 

During appointing any person  as State Information Commissioner, the government  should arrange  proper training and conduct  examination of the Information Commissioners before their appointment to the post of Information Commissioner because it is being observed that the Information commissioner Sri Jagadananda is not at all aware of the rules, Act of the RTI, for example in Second Appeal 439 of 2011 dated 09^th Feb 2012 , the commissioner has reflected my(Appellant) character  falsely that I am involved in court cases and criminal activities without any proof  because the PIO  of Health department has mentioned the same in his reply by showing some news papers cuttings (for your kind information On 28^th Jun 2011 I have handed over one Sub-inspector Kashinath Dash of Town Police Station, Puri, Odisha to Vigilance Bhubaneswar as the Sub-Inspector was caught by vigilance  officers while taking bribe Rs 20,000/- from me near Hospital square, Puri at 10:30 AM on 28th June 2011 hence a lot corrupt police officer in Puri and some fake journalists are behind me to fix me in false cases).

 This type of immature, brainless, careless, irresponsible act is not at all expected from one matured, highly responsible and intelligent person who is appointed as Information Commissioner by the Governor of Odisha.

Mr. Jagadananda ha got no right to do so, he is not being appointed by the Governor of Odisha to defame the complainant/ Appellant and reflect the same in his decision, instead of taking disciplinary action against the PIO for doing so. One Appellant / Complainant is appealing or registering a complaint / appeal to get information and to get justice from the Information Commissioner, if the complainant/ Appellant is being defamed and insulted by the Information commissioner himself then what we can expect from the Public Information officers and First appellate authorities! This type of activity of Information Commissioner Jagadananda will certainly discourage any RTI activist who is fighting against corruption and corrupt government servants.

Hence after going through the decision on Appeal 439 of 2011, I have objected and wrote a letter to Sri Jagadananda on 19.5.2012 by Speed Post as well as by email by condemning his decision but so far I have not received any reply to my condemnation. If this type of irresponsible act has happened by mistake then Sri Jagadananda should have asked apology but he has not asked any apology to me after doing this blunder mistake. It shows that how serious he is towards the RTI Act!  

I request all the citizens to go through the Appeal 439 of 2011 and my reply dated 19.5.2012 to Sri Jagadananda(Scan copy of the Appeal and the reply is given in Attachment) because this type of incident can happen with any citizen.   

WITH REGARDS
