Dear Manoj 1) Imposition of Penalty for not appearing at SIC hearing is sanctioned by RTI Act.
2)Imposition of Penalty for not giving any reply for more than 6 months will not stand either when the Appellant himself failed to turn up for his hearing. In any case when no reply is received from PIO - the proper course of action is to file a Complaint u/s 18 for "deemed refusal". Sarbajit --- In [email protected], "Manoj K.
