Re: [IAC++] enlighten us all those who matters

Dear Naveen

Thank you for remembering me. Your recollection of that matter is
considerably at variance with reality so let me update you, also since
I understand you are with the NAPM who have a small RTI movement in UP
also.

1) I did not "lose" along with the CIC. I "won" along with the DDA.

2) The issues before the Court were

A) If CIC could frame Regulations for RTI.
I and the DDA said they could not. Both of us submitted our written
statements to this effect. The CIC had no answer and did not file any
written submissions.

B) If DDA had an obligation to disclose information suo-moto under section 4
This was my issue, and it was emphatically answered in my favour

C) If CIC could form a committee of enquiry of outsiders u/s 18.
Both DDA and I said they could not.Both of us submitted our written
statements to this effect. The CIC had no answer and did not file any
written submissions.

You can read the detailed judgement on DHC website (WP(C)12714/2009.
Nothing to show that I "lost".

The matter is now in Supreme Court as a Civil Appeal brought by the
CIC. Although on "theoretical" grounds I would have preferred to side
with the DDA and hammer the CIC, on practical grounds seeing the poor
state of RTI in the country I am not entering appearance in the matter
to give the hapless CIC a fair shot.
