i can quote some applications ..
1. list of the restricted holidays availed by the govt officers in every department.....(think of the volume as it is an openended RTI application...so all govt offices will need to answer this..) the poor RTI activist pay only 10 rs as fee but how much govt is spending on sending this marvellous peace of question paper to all its subordinate offices....just brother think on this aspect too...
sagginyou,

A long time back, I had decided that I will not get into "catfights" or "dogfights" on this forum. But your two posts (read my reply to your other post in the other thread) made me wake up from slumber.

1. Are you a PIO ?
2. Are you a Officer or a Government Servant ?
3. How long have you been in the Government ?

Since you seem to be so aggrieved by this Act and "stupid" people like me, please enlighten me:

1. What do you mean by "non-sensical" ?
2. Who decides what is "non-sensical" ?

The "non-sensical" subject matter of the applications you referred to should have been denied under Sec 7(9) by the "sensible" PIO. Didn't he read the RTI Act ? Probably he was too busy putting the badge of "PIO" on his belly button (like you accuse me of doing, in your following post):

Now, nail ***** for foreign tours

=====================================

Kushal and other Moderators,

I request you to please book sagginyou for a "infraction".
His post is totally irrelevant to the thread.
It contains insinuations.

I have been called "middleman" by the Prime Minister
I have been called "dalal" by a State minister.
But being called "stupid" by sagginyou is a bit too much !

sagginyou, my knowledge is not restricted to the RTI Act. If need be I can call you all kinds of names in 18 different languages, some of which even babblefish will never translate for you ! But not in this forum.

DON'T MESS AROUND WITH THE RTI ACT 2005 !
