Dear All, 1) Happy to share information in response to RTI Applications ( since 2005) & Citizens Demand that Pune Municipal Corporation’s Building Permission Dept has decided to upload the Status Of File on PMC’s web site very shortly ( hopefully, within four weeks from now). Only authenticity of Digital Signature part is pending. ( See e mail from PMC, dtd 1.4.09 Part B). ( Thanks to PMC Commissioner Pravinsingh Pardeshi, Ex Comner Dr Kareer, Prashant Waghmare ( City Engineer) Shri Erande PMC Software In Charge, Shri Pavaskar ( Asst Engr, PMC) & Entire PMC Team.) What essentially it means is that Citizens/ Architects can access the Status of File from anywhere in the World, no need to visit PMC office. If desired one may demand implementation of said System in their Cities too.( What is required publication of Checklist of Documents, Standard of Performances ( Vivek Velankar, Jugalji Rathi & Prayas Group done wonderful job in MSEB offices in Pune) & Status of File on Net. In case of practical difficulties one may take the help of NIC ( Govt Of India ) for publication of Status of File. 2) I have also been given to understand that Boon Mgt Co( Pune ZP consultant ) have given presentation to PMC Bldg Dept about ISO 9001.PMC’s Vaccine Dept is already ISO 9001. 3) CIC invites Best Practices from Govt Depts, I had this message to all CICs & SICs (with expectation that it would also invite Best Practices from Citizens i.e Status Of File in their Depts/ Areas, while assessing Section 4 Compliance on Quarterly Basis. i.e RTI Conclave by CICs & SICS). It is worth noting that Appl Auty DoPT has informed us that Nodal Agency to Monitor Section 4 Compliance is CIC & SICs. CICS/ SICS should invite Good practices from RTI Activists, Doctors/ Engrs/CAs/ Associations , Chamber of Commerce, FICCI , NGOs etc. to take RTI to its logical Conclusion i.e. Good Governance...

The building permission department shall soon provide web-based service to the architects. Speaking to DNA, the information technology director of the PMC, Ra-jendra Erande, said, "Once the system is in place, we will provide the architects submitting their plans a registration number and their digitised signature to check the status of the file." The'department is working on the security aspect of the system so that only those concerned can access the file status. "The system will operate in five steps that include completion of application, site visit, document and Development Control (DC) rules scrutiny, scrutiny results and post-approval status," Erande added. City engineer Prashant Waghmare said, "At present the architect has to submit the building plan in a CD format and there is no web-based access that would enable him to check the status of the file. Once the new system starts functioning, the architect ca submit the building plan online on th PMC website. The department will scrutinise it within 24 hours 1 recommend alterations," he said, "The system is ready but would take around four weeks to go operational," he said. ************* Part B: E mai from PMC: Rajendra Erande : [email protected] Dear Mr. Durve, Pl. refer to our discussion on the subject The system is available and gives status in 5 steps as given below.
