2008 (11) TMI 330 - HC - Central ExciseRight to Information Act, 2005 - The challenge in the present writ petition is to the order passed by Central Information Commission, directing the petitioner to disclose information in respect of marks obtained by respondent No. 2 in written test; interview as well as marks obtained by the last candidate who was found suitable to be promoted - Respondent No. 2 has sought information in respect of his grading by the Competent Authority. Such information is not personal information as the information sought is in respect of right of the petitioner to be considered for promotion in accordance with Rules. The personal information can be said to be information relating to a person and not in respect of grading of a candidate. Therefore, we do not find any merit in the arguments raised by the petitioner that under Section 8(1)(j) of the Act, such information cannot be supplied. The argument that information sought is part of vindictiveness of respondent No. 2 is not tenable. The information sought is in respect of marks obtained which cannot be said to wanting in bona fides in any manner. - In view of above, we do not find any merit in the present petition and the same is dismissed.
