Feeling aggrieved , appellant filed 2nd Appeal before the State Information Commission (SIC) on 09.10.2018 submitting there under that not only the PIO has failed in providing him the information but the Deputy Commissioner Budgam who is the designated First Appellate Authority (FAA) under J&K RTI Act 2009 has also failed to dispose of his First Appeal.
The 2nd appeal came up for hearing before the State Information Commission (SIC) on 14.01.2019.

"A copy of the said communication which was available with the PIO was handed over to the appellant during the course of hearing.

This licence is not included in the list of licences issued by D C Budgam which has been furnished to the 3 appellant.
