In a landmark order, the Central Information Commission (CIC) has imposed
maximum penalty of Rs 25,000 on a Delhi government officer for wrongfully
stopping pension of a 70-year-old poor woman and not reinstating it despite
a directive from the transparency watchdog. Berating the woman officer for
being adamant and getting back at the below poverty line (BPL)
septuagenarian for using Right to Information Act, CIC also awarded a
compensation of Rs 6,000 to the applicant. In an 11-page order, Information
Commissioner M Sridhar Acharyulu threatened to initiate criminal
proceedings against the officer of woman and child development
department of Delhi government in case the order is not complied with
within one month. The applicant found herself in a helpless situation when
the Delhi government stopped paying her in January 2013 the monthly old
age pension of Rs 1,500 that had been accruing to her post office ac count.
Delhi government had taken a policy decision to credit this amount only to
bank accounts and not accounts maintained in post offices.

The senior citizen maintained that she had opened a new account in a bank and
intimated the women and child department in August 2012, four ordered the Delhi
government department to reinstate the pension and pay damages of Rs 5,000 to
the poor applicant. Despite this order, the government did not obey the directive.
Last week, the Information Commissioner passed a scathing indictment of the
woman officer and the government department. “It appears that the whole issue is
of ego of the officers exhibiting anger for approaching through RTI and intolerance
to the presence and support of NGO to the appellant. It was most unreasonable for
a public servant to deny pension in unreasonable way , even after appellant
opened her bank account and approached their office through RTI,“ the order says.
It adds, “It is sad to note that the officer designated as `Public Information Officer'
does not give information to poor member of public and when she approaches
under RTI, the officer rejects for not approaching her directly . It is surprising how
an officer working in a welfare wing such as women and child department, did not
have that human concern for the poor, eligible, old woman.“
