| RTI activist demands probe against SIC's officer | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Feb 21: A Right to Information (RTI) activist Raman Sharma has demanded action against the responsible officer of Jammu and Kashmir State Information Commission for unnecessary delay in presenting his case before Chief Information Commissioner GR Sufi.
According to press release, a formal complaint dated February, 4, 2013 has been made to the State Chief Information Commissioner by Raman Sharma, demanding probe and action against the officer(s) of the Jammu and Kashmir State Information Commission who are allegedly responsible for an inordinate delay of more than 7 months in posting and presenting a complaint of the applicant before the State Chief Information Commissioner.
Giving brief about the case, RTI activist Raman Sharma said that he has urged GR Sufi to order a probe to pin point the officer(s) of the JKSIC who was responsible for presenting his complaint before the CIC which remained lying with the commission for more than seven months.
"Moreover even after one hearing of the case in Dec/2012, I was never briefed, informed about any decision/order or present status of the complainant's case" Sharma alleged.
He further said that earlier he had submitted a complaint with the commission on May, 16, 2012 against a Public authority for not following section 4 of Jammu and Kashmir Right to Information Act 2009 and sought a direction in this regard. "But for the reason better known to the officers of the State Information Commission, this complaint was presented before the CIC only in the month of December 2012 only after a number of requests from the applicant himself" he said.
