| The term modified has to be understood in the correct context. The information is nothing but the facts of proceeding of public authority . If in the proceeding some third party information comes in picture naturally, the public authority will omit that part and provide information .If that is considred as modified then it can be YES / NO depending on the facts of the case. |

information can be modified and provided; as long as its accuracy and content are not affected; depending on the question framed by the information seeker, a gist of the document can be provided by the PA. it is upto the information seeker to frame questions in such a way that maximum information can be elicited. |
