Quick Summary

This judgement concerns an appeal filed under the Right to Information (RTI) Act, 2005. The appellant sought information regarding shares, framing it as a grievance. However, the Appellate Authority determined that the nature of the submission, being a grievance about shares, did not fall within the scope of information that could be provided under the RTI Act. Therefore, the appeal was decided based on the existing records.
