Dear Babubhai, Mr Habibullah is correct when he says that his job is to secure you information and not justice.
You are equally correct when you highlight how Mr Habibullah has failed to secure you the information after 3 years and many complaints. Many of us are similarly placed. For instance I have been asking for a copy of the Delhi Development Act, its Rules and its Regulations. Mr Habibullah has refused to entertain my numerous complaints pending with his office for over 3 years now. The information sought by me is basic Section 4 information which is to be proactively published in any case and further buttressed by a CIC order to the Secretary of DDA to do so. The fact that Mr Habibullah has failed to even register my detailed and specific complaints to him, his Secretary and his Registry (of wilful non-compliance of CIC orders to a named individual) is a clear admission that the CIC is a fiefdom of the Land Mafia (in addition to various other mafias) and that his own personal integrity and rectitude are in doubt. Mr Habibullah may also care to enquire into his personal staff's integrity - considering that some of them are member's of All India services and are not above being approached by their seniors to hush up particularly awkward information requests. Swaraj is no longer a right to be fought for, information and transparency are.
