Brief Facts Prayer

I vide

my

RTI petition dated 16.09.2013 sought complete information together with relevant

documents/corrospondence/file-notings on under-mentioned aspects:

1.

Complete information on rules providing residential-accommodations to Chairpersons and members

of

TDSAT mentioning also expenses allowable

on

repairs/renovationS/fixtures/furnishing/maintenance/furniture/air-conditioners/computers/electric

electronic gadgets and other fixtures etc for such government-provided residential-accommodations either

by

Central Public Works Department (CPWD) or

by

TDSAT

2. Is it true that some expenses on furnishing/furniture/air-conditioners/computers/electric

&

electronic

gadgets and other fixtures etc on such government-provided residential-accommodations to TDSAT

Chairperson Mr Justice Aftab Alam and/or the other TDSAT memberls is done by TDSAT mentioning also

if it

is

permissible to transfer some such furniture/air-conditioners/computers/electric & electronic gadgets

and other fixtures etc from TDSA T office to such government-provided residential-accommodations of the

Chairperson and/or the other memberls ofTDSAT?

8/10/2019 Cic(24)Tdsat Chair Comp

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/cic24tdsat-chair-comp 7/35

Even in regard to query 8) attached note-sheets provide cost and source of purchase for items numbered from 16)

to 21) for purchases made for the then TDSAT chairperson

Mr

Justice Arun Kumar. But no such details including

cost and source

of

purchase were given in respect

of

item-numbers 1) to 15). t was also not revealed if due

purchase-process was followed for purchases made as detailed in attached note-sheets or not. I appealed CPIO to be

directed to provide cost and source

of

purchase for item-numbers

1)

to 15) listed

in

attached note-sheets. I also

appealed that copies

of

purchase-orders and purchase-bills should be provided

in

respect

of

items listed

in

the

attached note-sheets mentioning also if all or some

of

these items were purchased through discretionary powers o

the then TDSAT chairperson without following usual government-process for purchases.

1 also appealed CPIO to be directed to provide similar information about any new purchases by TDSAT for

residence of earlier TDSAT chairperson Mr Justice SB Sinha. I also appealed CPIO to be directed. to revea

whereabouts

of

listed items purchased for Mr Justice Arun Kumar and later for Mr Justice SB Sinha since after tha

a different residential accomodation

is

provided to present TDSAT chairperson Mr Justice Aftab Alam. In case

items provided at residences

of

earlier TDSAT chairpersons Mr Justice Arun Kumar and Mr Justice S Sinha are

disposed of, then directions were requested for providing complete details about such disposal.

Sought information becomes crucial because the CPIO

in

his response stated an upper limit

of

rupees four lakhs to

be borne by TDSAT in respect

of

furnishings etc at residence

ofTDS T

chairperson while listed items are costing

much higher than the mentioned limit with cost and source

of

purchase not mentioned for majority

of

purchased

items for the then TDSAT chairperson Mr Justice Arun Kumar and totally avoiding details

in

respect

of

presen

TDSAT chairperson Mr Justice Aftab Alam and the earlier chairperson Mr Justice SB Sinha.

t was indeed surprising that an appeal dated 18.10.2013 was placed before the ordering Appellate Authority only

on 27.11.2013 while documents reveal that there was an earlier Appellate Authority who received first appeal

on

21.10.2013. Question arises why there was a wait for some other Appellate Authority to decide the first appeal.

The new Appellate Authority

in

its order dated 16.12.2013 instead

of

directing the CPIO to provide proper

information together with sought and related documents, at this stage offered inspection.

If

CPIO can provide

information for an earlier Chairperson from old files, then there

is

no logic that information relating to present

Chairperson that too from current files may not be provided. Undersigned petitioner has been paying thousands

of

rupees towards copying charges on a single RTI petition

if

demand was made on time. Here in this case also,

petitioner would have paid copying charges

if

demand would have been made

in

time.

In

suspicious manner

of

pro replying and subsequent had ling

of

first appeal, I doubt that inspection offered may be a complete eye-wash

with proabilibity

of

useless files dumped before me so that I may not be practically able to sort out the required

ones like has been bitter

e x p i r i e ~ e

with the undersigned in a solitary case

of

accepted inspection. Otherwise also,

even information-part

is

also incomplete as referred above.

query of my RTI petition together with sought and related documents but now to be provided free-of-cost under

section 7(6) ofRTI Act. I also appeal for compensation under section 19(8)(b) ofRTI Act. Erring ones may kindly

10. File-notings on movement of this RTI petition

Learned CPIO vide response number 29/3/2013/RTI-Pt.1/4001 dated 15.10.2013 did provide

some (and not complete) information in regards to query-number (8) regarding earlier TDSAT

chairpersons but cleverly avoiding main query-numbers (1) to (7) in regard to present TDSAT

chairperson Mr Justice Aftab Alam. I appeal that learned CPIO may kindly be directed to

 provide detailed and complete information in regard to query-numbers (1) to (7) of my RTI

8/10/2019 Cic(24)Tdsat Chair Comp

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/cic24tdsat-chair-comp 14/35

 petition with all related and sought documents now to be provided free-of-cost under section 7(6)

of RTI Act. Necessary department action may kindly be initiated against the concerned CPIO for

deliberately obstructing detailed information regarding query-numbers (1) to (7) regarding

 present TDSAT chairperson Mr Justice Aftab Alam at a time when my queries were well

understood because query (8) of similar nature regarding earlier TDSAT charirpersons was tried

to be provided though not completely.

Even in regard to query (8) attached note-sheets provide cost and source of purchase for items

numbered from (16) to (21) for purchases made for the then TDSAT chairperson Mr Justice

Arun Kumar. But no such details including cost and source of purchase are given in respect of

item-numbers (1) to (15). It has also not been revealed if due purchase-process was followed for

 purchases made as detailed in attached note-sheets or not. I appeal learned CPIO may kindly be

directed to provide cost and source of purchase for item-numbers (1) to (15) listed in attached

note-sheets. I also appeal that copies of purchase-orders and purchase-bills may also be kindly

directed to be provided in respect6 of items listed in the attached note-sheets mentioning also if

all or some of these items were purchased through discretionary powers of the then TDSAT

chairperson without following usual government-process for purchases.

Learned CPIO may also kindly be directed to provide similar information about any new

 purchases by TDSAT for residence of earlier TDSAT chairperson Mr Justice SB Sinha. I also

appeal that learned CPIO may kindly be directed to reveal whereabouts of listed items purchased

for Mr Justice Arun Kumar and later for Mr Justice SB Sinha since after that a different

residential accomodation is provided to present TDSAT chairperson Mr Justice Aftab Alam. In

case items provided at residences of earlier TDSAT chairpersons Mr Justice Arun Kumar and Mr

Justice SB Sinha are disposed of, then directions may kindly be given for providing complete

details about such disposal.

Sought information becomes crucial because the CPIO in his response has stated an upper limit

of rupees four lakhs to be borne by TDSAT in respect of furnishings etc at residence of TDSAT

chairperson while listed items are costing much higher than the mentioned limit with cost and

source of purchase not mentioned for majority of purchased items for the then TDSAT

chairperson Mr Justice Arun Kumar and totally avoiding details in respect of present TDSAT

chairperson Mr Justice Aftab Alam and the earlier chairperson Mr Justice SB Sinha. It is prayed

accordingly.
