TSIC

The Public Information Officer has not furnished the information to the appellant.

Since the appellant did not receive the information from the Public Information Officer, he filed 1st appeal dated 22-03-2018 before the 1st Appellate Authority requesting him to furnish the information sought by him u/s 19(1) of the RTI Act, 2005.

The 1st Appellate Authority / The Extension Officer (PR & RD), O/o.

As the appellant did not get the clear and complete information from the Public Information Officer / 1st Appellate Authority even after 30 days of filing his 1st appeal, he preferred this 2nd appeal before this Commission requesting to take action against the PIO and 1st Appellate Authority for not furnishing information sought by him and also to arrange to furnish the information sought by him u/s 19(3) of the RTI Act, 2005.

The 2nd appeal was taken on file and notices were issued to both the parties for hearing on 18-6-2019.
