Petitioner: Thiru B.S. Rathinam, S/o. Thiru Settu Girisamuthiram Village & Post , District

The Public Information Officer Office of the Tahsildar, Taluk Office, , District ===== The petitioner asked for verification of the community certificate of a lady candidate whom he alleges has given a false certificate as belonging to Adidravidar Community and has completed her education and secured employment with that concession in violation of the rules. It has been established that the certificate produced by her father given at Vaniyambadi Taluk Office has been held to be suspect by the Tahsildar on subsequent verification. But her own certificate has not been quetioned as it should have been. However this issue is not an RTI issue but an issue to be settled by the Collector, Vellore after having records verified properly and the Education Department which has given the certificate. Hence this is commended back to the Collector, Vellore and the Director of Elementary Education, Chennai, to have the records verified and take such necessary action as necessary as per the rules. As far as RTI is concerned, that else nothing subsists in this.
