An analysis by Right to Information activists confirms that the Central Information Commission is returning requests for information at a high rate to the applicants.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Twelve per cent of all second appeals and complaints received by the CIC this year were returned to the senders, with reasons for the return being made available in only a fraction of cases.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
As reported earlier by The Hindu, the number of cases the CIC admits has crashed precipitously. Activists say it is likely that a larger number of applicants are having their requests turned down. It is difficult to track requests which have been turned down by the CIC in the absence of clear information about them, say the activists.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
An analysis by Manisha Chachra, Venkatesh Nayak and Lakshya Thukral of the Access to Information Programme of CHRI has shown that the CIC received 71,166 second appeals and complaints between January and October, 2015, and returned 8,534 or almost 12 per cent to the sender. The rate of return spiked in August , when one out of every five requests was returned.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Simultaneously, Anjali Bhardwaj and Amrita Johri of the National Campaign for the People&amp;rsquo;s Right to Information analysed the &amp;ldquo;deficiency memos&amp;rdquo; that the CIC must create for every appeal or complaint returned to the sender.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
In August 2015 alone, they found that the CIC received 6,389 pieces of mail. Of these, the status for 1,048 showed they were &amp;lsquo;returned to sender&amp;rsquo;; 183 were marked &amp;lsquo;registered,&amp;rsquo; and the remaining 5,158 as &amp;lsquo;fresh dak,&amp;rsquo; meaning that they were yet unopened.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
A random sample of 5 per cent of those returned to the sender showed that the deficiency memos could only be located for 11 of the 54 cases which were returned.

As reported earlier by The Hindu, the number of cases the CIC admits has crashed precipitously. Activists say it is likely that a larger number of applicants are having their requests turned down.

In August 2015 alone, they found that the CIC received 6,389 pieces of mail. Of these, the status for 1,048 showed they were &amp;lsquo;returned to sender&amp;rsquo;; 183 were marked &amp;lsquo;registered,&amp;rsquo; and the remaining 5,158 as &amp;lsquo;fresh dak,&amp;rsquo; meaning that they were yet unopened.

Twelve per cent of all second appeals and complaints received by the CIC this year were returned to the senders, with reasons for the return being made available in only a fraction of cases.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;

An analysis by Manisha Chachra, Venkatesh Nayak and Lakshya Thukral of the Access to Information Programme of CHRI has shown that the CIC received 71,166 second appeals and complaints between January and October, 2015, and returned 8,534 or almost 12 per cent to the sender.

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Simultaneously, Anjali Bhardwaj and Amrita Johri of the National Campaign for the People&amp;rsquo;s Right to Information analysed the &amp;ldquo;deficiency memos&amp;rdquo; that the CIC must create for every appeal or complaint returned to the sender.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
In August 2015 alone, they found that the CIC received 6,389 pieces of mail. Of these, the status for 1,048 showed they were &amp;lsquo;returned to sender&amp;rsquo;; 183 were marked &amp;lsquo;registered,&amp;rsquo; and the remaining 5,158 as &amp;lsquo;fresh dak,&amp;rsquo; meaning that they were yet unopened.

&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
A random sample of 5 per cent of those returned to the sender showed that the deficiency memos could only be located for 11 of the 54 cases which were returned.

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify&quot;&gt;
Twelve per cent of all second appeals and complaints received by the CIC this year were returned to the senders, with reasons for the return being made available in only a fraction of cases.

Simultaneously, Anjali Bhardwaj and Amrita Johri of the National Campaign for the People&amp;rsquo;s Right to Information analysed the &amp;ldquo;deficiency memos&amp;rdquo; that the CIC must create for every appeal or complaint returned to the sender.

CIC returns 12% of pleas -Rukmini S

-The Hindu An analysis by Right to Information activists confirms that the Central Information Commission is returning requests for information at a high rate to the applicants. Twelve per cent of all second appeals and complaints received by the CIC this year were returned to the senders, with reasons for the return being made available in only a fraction of cases. As reported earlier by The Hindu, the number of cases the CIC admits has crashed precipitously. Activists say it is likely that a larger number of applicants are having their requests turned down. It is difficult to track requests which have been turned down by the CIC in the absence of clear information about them, say the activists. An analysis by Manisha Chachra, Venkatesh Nayak and Lakshya Thukral of the Access to Information Programme of CHRI has shown that the CIC received 71,166 second appeals and complaints between January and October, 2015, and returned 8,534 or almost 12 per cent to the sender. The rate of return spiked in August , when one out of every five requests was returned. Simultaneously, Anjali Bhardwaj and Amrita Johri of the National Campaign for the People’s Right to Information analysed the “deficiency memos” that the CIC must create for every appeal or complaint returned to the sender. In August 2015 alone, they found that the CIC received 6,389 pieces of mail. Of these, the status for 1,048 showed they were ‘returned to sender’; 183 were marked ‘registered,’ and the remaining 5,158 as ‘fresh dak,’ meaning that they were yet unopened. A random sample of 5 per cent of those returned to the sender showed that the deficiency memos could only be located for 11 of the 54 cases which were returned.
