"2. The impugned order dated 7th November, 2008 suffers from two
infirmities. Firstly, it is a non-speaking order and secondly the impugned 
order was passed without notice to the third parties, i.e. the petitioner and 
Ms. Sangeeta Paul, Principal of the petitioner school about whom certain 
information was sought by the respondent No. 4. On these two grounds, the 
impugned order cannot be sustained and has to be set aside."

"6 ... The appeal filed before the Information Commissioner has
been allowed by order dated 7th November, 2008. As noted above, the
Information Commissioner has allowed the appeal without giving any
reasons and has merely stated that the exemption claimed under Section
8(1)(j) is only a ploy to deny the information. This does not meet the
requirement of the Section, the Act and principle of administrative law,
i.e., giving of reasons."
