Agreed List - revenue refuses to part with information

By Vijay Kumar

In its order dated 1^st May 2006, the CIC, directed the CBEC’s Vigilance Directorate to furnish the list of officers figuring in the ‘agreed list’ who have been promoted or posted to sensitive posts. 2006-HRIOL-64-CIC. The information is too sensitive for the Revenue and so they have not followed the Commission’s directions and the lawyer is back in the Commission demanding penalty against the defaulting officers. DDT spoke to Ms. S.R. Sawant, the Mumbai based advocate who filed the application under the RTI Act and she spoke about filing an application in the CAT as well as the CIC.
