Disregarding RTI Act | | Dear Sir,
I am a Senior Citizen and a reired Government Officer. I retired as Joint Secretary to Government in Tamilnadu Secretariat. I sought certain details about the settlement of "Arrears of Pay Commission dues" withheld by the Accountant General, Tamilnadu, duly affixing court fee stamp to the value of Rs.10/-. Even after 55 days the A.G.Tamilnadu, did not care to send even an interim letter. In fact I sent a reminder on 21/2/08. The original letter was sent by speed post on 24/1/2008. If the Apex Central Government institution incharge of maintaining State accounts is disregarding the Central act and behaves indifferent manner to a retired Senior Government official and a Senior Citizen (now 65 years old) what will be fate of ordinary person. In spite of any amount of laws and acts enacted for the benefit of citizens Government officials never correct themselves and behave indifferently and disregard the rule. If "rtiindia.org" could help senior citizens like me the purpose of creating the forum will be fulfilled.
