Disclose details of case probed, CIC tells CBI -Rumu Banerjee

NEW DELHI: In an order that is likely to have wider ramifications, the central information commission has directed the CBI to disclose details of a case it had investigated.

Dismissing the agency’s contention of being exempt from RTI requests under section 24 of the RTI Act, the CIC said the CBI had “grossly erred” in invoking exemption under sections of the RTI Act. It directed that the information be shared with the appellant within 15 days and that a compliance report be filed. The CIC also marked a copy of the order to the CBI director, noting that its personnel be sensitised regarding the scope and ambit of RTI Act, and Section 24 in particular.

The order by information commissioner Divya Prakash Sinha came on an RTI application by N Parasher, who sought information into a CBI inquiry into irregular appointment of staff by the Leprosy Prevention Unit of the health department. The CBI inquiry had been at the behest of the Patna High Court.
