Sir, The Central Public Information Officer or State Public Information Officer, as the case may be, may seek the assistance of any other officer as he or she considers it necessary for the proper discharge of his or her duties. Now the Ex official is suppose to assist the PIO in giving the corrupt decisions of his time. Second Option is since i have categorically asked info of the period of Ex official, there has t be provisos in RTI act to counter such smart Official to leave office with all corrupt records missing with no record ever existed. Ex official is still very much under RTI act for his decisions which he did not take or took corrupt decisions.

Since the documents requested do not comprise records, neither the PIO nor the PA are obliged in law to provide them to you. 2) Question of PA summoning them from ex-official is not indicated in your case. 3) Your remedies:- a) File Complaint u/s 18 to CIC, stating that PA has malafidely destroyed / rendered untraceable the specific information sought by you, praying that the documents may be summoned.from the ex-official to examine notings / action taken. As yours is a frivolous complaint, you shall have to influence / bribe the I.C. concerned to issue such summons via his personal staff. b) File a complaint to Central Vigilance Commission, using the reply of CPIO as cause of action.

I must ponder on The real questions. The real questions refuse to be placated. They barge into our life at the times when it seems most important for them to stay away. They are the questions asked most frequently and answered most inadequately, the ones that reveal their true natures slowly, reluctantly, most often. > > I am the only one, but I am one. > I cannot do everything, but I can do something. > And because I cannot do everything. > I will not refuse to do the something that I can do. > What I can do, I should do. > and what I should do, by the grace of God I will do > > > > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
