Dear Friends,
Today I have received RTI reply from PMO, South block, New Delhi in respect of my online RTI request in respect of PMO website regarding Interact with Honorable Prime Minister of India. It is observed that when citizen of India submitted some feedback, suggestions to improve system or information regarding misuse of fund & power by authorities, PMO officials are taking these inputs as personal grievances of individuals rather than taking inputs in national interest. The PMO officials forwarding that information directly send to concern organizations without concealing the name of individuals, it may be affect the carrier of individual or authorities can target to harass the individual.
It is requested please submit your valuable comments and suggestion on subject matter and regarding handling of RTI’s.
Regards

Two organizations of the Ministry of Defence namely, Defence Research and Development Organization (DRDO) and Border Roads Development Board (BRDB) are placed in the second schedule of the RTI Act, 2005.
As per available information, no notice of Supreme Court regarding applicability of RTI Act on Defence organizations has been received.
This information was given by Defence Minister Shri Manohar Parrikar in a written reply to Dr. Pradeep Kumar Balmuchu in Rajya Sabha today.
Pls See Following
The Delhi High Court held that Sec. 24 of the RTI Act grants protection to organisations like DRDO which are scheduled under the Act from the provisions of RTI. Here, the petitioner Dr. Neelam Bhalla a scientist exposed corruption by the higher officers who manipulating the recruitment process to select their own kith & kin. On petitioner’s complaint, the Ministry of Defence ordered a CBI and CVC enquiry, now pending, the petitioner, a whistle blower sought for records alleging punitive transfer which were denied. ON the basis of misleading statements provided by the Ministry of Defence, The ministry also tried to justify the transfer. However, the finding of fact by CIC, single judge & DB that inaccurate, misleading particulars were given to the petitioner.
Right to reputation is at article 21. Article 8 of declaration of Human rights provides excess to justice for violation of fundamental rights. The newly in acted Whistle blowers Act makes misleading information a culpable offence.

Real problem is that After so much of hype about interact with PM……. One day I wrote about some suggestions and critical comments about functioning of an organization, and gave some Ideas too to solve the problem too……and Unfortunately I work in the same organization. Very recently after few of such interactions with Hon. PM I got a reply from a small ranking section officer that “Your grievance has received and has been forwarded to concerned department”. To my surprise I have to spend one week to think what grievance I have posted at PMO and later on I come to know that interaction with PM is being considered as Grievance……. If such utter nonsense is happening in PMO itself what will be the condition in other ministries!!!!! And what is the fun in WRITING TO so much hyped “INTERACT WITH PM” web page????
I had the same experience as that of Mr arun
. It indicates how much serious is this much hyped portal on feedback on corruption and malpractices prevailing in a organization.
