First Appeal against order of CPIO and Under Secretary, D
(Pay/Services) vide MoD letter No. 35 (1)/2015/D (Pay/Services) dated 18 Nov
2016
Received by Speed Post on 14 Dec 2016
Sir,
I file this
First Appeal as I am aggrieved by order of CPIO & Under Secretary, D
(Pay/Services) who has not provided information that I requested for vide
MODEF/R/2016/52881 i.e a photocopy file notings that were issued in September 2008 i.e 8 years ago in
respect of Special Army/Navy/Air Force Instructions 1/S/2008 for PBOR, 2/S/2008
for Officers and 3/S/2008 on placing Lt Cols (and equivalents) in PB-4 and
Grade Pay of Rs 8000/-.
2. The subject matter, other
than complete file notings, has been disclosed quite extensively, amongst others, in the following
replies to requests for information under the RTI Act, 2005: -
(a) MoD letter No. 237/RTI/D (P/P) dated 30.11.2015,
(b) MoD letter No. 21(1)/2015 – D (PCC) dated
8.12.2015 requesting payment of Rs 130/- for 65 pages of information pertaining
to MoD’s comments for 7 CPC,
(b) MoD letter No. 237/RTI/S (P/P) dated
16.5.2016 requesting payment of Rs 84/- towards photocopying charges for 42
pages of information regarding CSC – 2009 and CSC - 2012.
(b) MoD ID No. PC-237/RTI/D (P/P)/2014 dated
13.06.2016
(b) File notings etc of MoD File No. 10
(1)/2009/D (Pen/Pol) processing the Cabinet Secretary Committee (CSC) Recommendations
of 2009,
(c) File notings etc of MoD File No. 12
(11)/2012/D (Pen/Pol) processing the Cabinet Secretary Committee (CSC)
Recommendations of 2012,
(d) File notings etc of MoD File No. 21
(1)/2015- D (PCC) on Note 26 dated 08 May 2015 processing comments for the
Seventh Central Pay Commission,
(e) Photocopy of MoD ID No. 22/S/2014 – D (PCC)
addressed to Shri D K Rai, Director, Seventh Central Pay Commission of same
date.
3. The above (MoD) disclosed information is already in the public
domain at Aerial View blog (URL: sharad10525.blogspot.in). There has been no
dissatisfaction or unrest in the Defence Forces with respect to the ibid
SAI/SNI/SAFI. The so called dissatisfaction, if any, has been addressed by two Cabinet
Secretary Committees (CSCs) whose reports have already been disclosed by MoD.
4. Therefore, the CPIO & US D-Pay/Services is not being
truthful and is resorting to a blatant attempt to conceal information requested
for by the indiscriminate use of Section 8 (1) (a) of the RTI Act, 2005.
5. Being aggrieved, it is requested that the First Appellate
Authority may order CPIO & US D (Pay/Services) to provide the information.
Yours faithfully,
Sd/-
