Friends,
Delhi High Court has given following judgement Under Right to Information Act......
May, 01st 2009 |
Justice S Ravindra Bhat dismissed contentions raised by the institute that answersheets fell beyond the purview of the RTI, holding that students were well within their rights to access them
|
“ICAI is an institute. You should apply pragmatism and set examples for others. You should
start by yourself... Many institutes do that and allow students to inspect their copies,” Justice Bhat told the ICAI, which had challenged a Central Information Commission verdict to provide certified copies of papers to students who failed the exams.
Additional Solicitor General Parag Tripathi, appearing for ICAI, submitted that the Supreme Court in its order of 2007 rejected the candidates’ right to demand answersheets.
