LS refuses info on Secy Gen’s extension

-The Indian Express
 
The Lok Sabha Secretariat has refused to disclose action taken by Speaker Meira Kumar on the objections raised by Leader of Opposition Sushma Swaraj to granting one-year extension to Secretary General T K Vishwanathan.

In its response to RTI activist Subhash Agrawal, the LS Secretariat has said: “Communications/Consultation by Honourable Speaker with the functionaries of the House in the discharge of constitutional duties, which, if disclosed, may cause breach of parliamentary privilege and hence is exempted under Section 8(1)(c) of the RTI Act. But in the same reply the Secretariat has provided the letter from Swaraj and the rules of appointment of the Secretary General as sought by Agrawal.
