* Ground For Appeal Refused access to Information Requested
((Description of Information sought (upto 500 characters) )
* Prayer or Relief Sought Large scale arbitrary rejection of the second appeal by the research officer indicating organised crime of Uttar Pradesh state information commission in the state of Uttar Pradesh. Uttar Pradesh state information commission has no reasonable solution against the arbitrary action of the research officer which implies the rule of anarchy in the working of the commission. It seems that Uttar Pradesh state information commission is ruled by corruption quite obvious from its cryptic working style and arbitrary actions. Here this question arises: who will take action against corruption if the system is ruled by corruption? This is the Root Cause in the last 10 years no action taken by the government against corruption. Tyranny and arbitrariness always open the gate of corruption and there is no transparency and accountability in the working of the transparency ombudsman itself.
According to subsection (2 B iv) of section 4 of the UTTAR PRADESH RIGHT TO INFORMATION RULES, 2015 categorically states that Any request for obtaining information under the Act should fulfil the following conditions: The information sought should not involve answers to the question ‘why’, thus asking for reasons why a certain act was done or not done; or
It is quite obvious that the concerned public information officer denied the information by taking the recourse of 4th point of subsection 2 b of section 4 of the Uttar Pradesh right to information rules 2015. According to this provision no queries can be put up before the public information officer and such information is exempted from disclosure under the rule framed by the government of Uttar Pradesh.
Here prayer has been made by the appellant in the form of the second appeals before the Uttar Pradesh state information commission. The acceptance of the appeal or rejection of the appeal is the decision taken by the Uttar Pradesh state information commission through concerned staff so if the rejection has been made by the Uttar Pradesh state information commission during the processing of the appeal then right to reason allows the applicant to seek the reason of the rejection from the concerned public authority.
Admission and rejection both are integral part of a decision and admission is a positive aspect of a decision a rejection is a negative aspect of decision. Arbitrary decisions without reasons always open the gate of corruption so in the interest of Justice such practices can never be promoted in the working of the transparency ombudsman whose job is to promote transparency and accountability in the working of the public authorities by being instrumental in providing information to the information seekers.
The right to give reasons or the right to a speaking order is one of the most important rights individuals have when they come up against the state in various administrative procedures. Due to this reason, this right has also been considered as the third principle of natural justice.
To prevent the negation of their decisions due to arbitrariness, the administrative authorities have to give convincing reasons for their actions. This prevents the functionaries from acting unfairly, unjustly and arbitrarily.
When administrative authorities give reasons for their actions, they are on the alert and have to carefully formulate objective reasons for their actions, which minimises the chances of abuse of powers by such authorities. Absence of such requirements, results in a wide scope for abuse of their discretion and creates a feeling of injustice and suspicion towards the state. Hence, this process of reasoning greatly limits the discretionary powers in the hands of government officials and furthers social welfare.
Subsection 1 d of Section 4 of RTI Act 2005 states that It shall be obligatory duty of public authorities to provide reasons of its decisions.
