" 3. As cic shailesh gandhi explained in his talk on 8th march, he felt that to begin his work in a completely hostile environment, with penalties, would defeat the purpose he had gone to delhi for. his thinking was that if the officers were to be converted to providing information, instead of blocking it, it would be necessary to nurture them for a certain length of time"
Is it a joke ? It is like " Bhains ke peeche been bachana" or something to that effect. From where did he bring this idea. I could not find these words in any of his postings in various forums. He did not go to delhi for this. According to all RTI Activists non imposition of Penalty was the main issue That was our priority. Reducing pendency was his own idea which of cource he has been advocating earlier also. What is the use of increasing quantity of his disposals by reducing the quality. What stopped him from honouring us by awarding at least 30 penalties with the existing staff. Shortage of staff is the general cry of every one who wants an excuse for not doing something. Not acceptable.We the Rtians want implementation of the RTI Act which include strict compliance of Section 20. If one is not capable of doing this please do not waste our time. Keep enjoying the appointment of IC. But remember that he has already ceased to be one of us by not receprocating to all these allegations levelled against and sticking to the lame excuses which we refuce to accept.
