So SC judges have disputes amongst themselves which can be resolved by the "competent authority" by looking up assets statements of his brother judges. Thanks for the clarification! I think the Punjab and Haryana High Court needs to have a similar arrangement because they are in the habit of disturbing the delicate balance by delivering one's share to another. This is unfair. Somebody's got to ensure equitable and fair distribution of "assets".

The CJI is a "competent authority" and not a "public authority". The documents are in his custody as head of the family for use in resolving their family disputes in case of need. These do not constitute "records" of the SC as they are copies of private records entrusted to the CJI by his brother judges. --- In [email protected] <mailto:rti_india%40yahoogroups.com> , "Rakesh Agarwal" <rak...@...> wrote: > > Records submitted to him in what capacity? > > > From: [email protected] <mailto:rti_india%40yahoogroups.com> [mailto:[email protected] <mailto:rti_india%40yahoogroups.com> ] On Behalf > Of sroy1947 > Sent: 12 January 2009 11:37 > To: [email protected] <mailto:rti_india%40yahoogroups.com> > Subject: [rti_india] Re: Remarks from CJI on CIC decision > > > > The CJI obviously knows the legislative mandate better than silly > little RTI activists.
