The Central Information Commission has directed the Home Ministry to disclose all file notings related to the controversial notification of the Centre issued on May 21, 2015 defining the role of Lt Governor in Delhi government. The information was denied by the Home Ministry saying Delhi government had challenged it in the High Court and disclosure of the records might adversely affect its case. Rejecting the contention of the Centre on the plea of activist Subhash Agrawal, the Commission said the information was not provided to the complainant on the ground that the matter is sub­judice. "However, the same is no ground to claim exemption under Section 8 of the RTI Act." Further, on specifically asking the respondent, it failed to justify the denial of information. "Thus, the Commission accedes to the request of the complainant and converts this complaint to second appeal and directs the respondent to provide point-wise information, free of cost to the complainant within a period of four weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this decision."
