O R D E R (Open Court)


RTI application dated : 05/03/2012
PIO reply : 17/08/2012
First Appeal filed on : 11/04/2012
FAA Order dated : 10/05/2012
Second Appeal filed on : 22/05/2012

This second appeal arises out of original RTI application dated 05/03/2012 made before the PIO/Deputy Director (Planning), Directorate of Health Services, Panaji, Goa regarding constant absence of Dr. Kalidas Vaigankar and action taken on him.


The Appellant has remained absent right from 02/07/2012 in the matter throughout except on 10/06/2014. Reply has been filed by PIO on 18/06/2014 but the appellant has not refuted it.


I have perused his RTI application which bears reference to an earlier letter written to Dr. Vaigankar which is not enclosed in the Appeal Memo. Moreover question 2 and 3 are not in the nature of asking factual information but in a manner of casting aspersions on the Director of Health.

The Appellant has never remained present since day one (11/09/2012), nor enquired about appeal, although he has been attending to other cases filed by him on a regular basis.

The PIO, in his reply to 2nd appeal, has stated how the questions are unclear and vague. The appellant has not refuted. Hence I find that the second appeal lacks merit.

--- O R D E R---

The second appeal is dismissed for default of Appellant. Order declared in Open Court. Inform the Parties.
