2016 (4) TMI 1015 - Commission - Indian LawsExemption under Section 8(1)(h) of the RTI Act - Held that:- The Commission observes that the CPIO has wrongfully claimed exemption under Section 8(1)(h) of the RTI Act as the same would not be applicable since no inquiry was pending and hence, the question of investigation on inquiry does not arise. The Commission further observes that though the CPIO has provided misleading and incorrect information to the appellant there was no malafide intent on the part of the CPIO. In view of this, the CPIO is cautioned to be more careful in future, so that such lapses do not recur. The CPIO is also directed to ensure that the provisions of the RTI Act are implemented in letter and spirit.
