Breaking News:
Justifications not part of info under RTI: HC

Gauree Malkarnekar, TNN 9 July 2009, 05:50am IST
Bookmark/Share Comment Text Size:

PANAJI: An order of the high court of Bombay at Goa, stating that the definition for information
under the Right to Information Act cannot include
answers to the question "why",

which would be the same thing
as asking the reason for a justification, has been circulated to Central ministries and
•
departments.
Bringing relief to public information authorities, the high court of Bombay at Goa held: "The
public information authorities cannot expect to communicate to citizens the reason why a
certain thing was done or not done in the sense of justification because the citizen makes a
requisition about information. Justifications are matter within the domain of adjudicating
authorities and cannot properly be classified as information."
The judgment was circulated by office memorandum dated June 1, 2009 to all ministries,
departments and state information commissions of the government of India by the Centre's
department of personnel and training. The judgment has also been circulated in the Rajya
Sabha, the Lok Sabha, and offices of the President and Prime Minister.
The judgment, dated April 3, 2008, came in favour of Goa's director of education Celsa Pinto,
who had challenged an order dated July 27, 2007 passed by the Goa Information Commission
holding her responsible for furnishing "incorrect, incomplete or misleading information".
Education department's legal officer Avinash Nasnodkar said that the judgment appears to
have brought relief to several government officials across the country. "Several copies of the
judgment were picked up from us by all government offices in Goa and the judgment has now
been circulated all over the country by the central government. At times officials are harassed
using the RTI act for wrong purposes. They are expected to have an answer to anything and
everything. At least now they will not be challenged or penalised for not justifying things they
have no control over."
The judgment states that section 2 (f) of the RTI Act defines information to mean "any material
in any form, including records, documents, memos, e-mails, opinions, advises, press releases,
circulars, orders, logbooks, contracts, reports, papers, samples, models, data material held in
any electronic form and information relating to any private body which can be accessed by a
public authority under any other law for the time being in force."
The case pertained to information sought by Milan Natekar, a government servant, seeking to
know from the education director, in this case also the public information officer, "why the
librarian from the engineering college was not considered for promotion for the post of curator
in the Central library when it had fallen vacant due to retirement" of the person holding the
position.
Initially, the director had replied "N.A." to all questions posed by Natekar, and when the latter
sought clarifications, the director replied that the abbreviation stood for "not available". To the
question as to why the post of librarian was not filled up, the director stated: "I don't know".
Natekar then approached the Goa Information Commission (GIC).
Ruling in the matter, the GIC held that the education director was guilty of furnishing
•
incomplete, misleading and false information and imposed a penalty of Rs 5,000 which was
"liable to be deducted from her salary from the month of August 2007".
Nasnodkar and advocate J A Lobo challenged the commission's order in the high court. Lobo
argued that GIC wrongly held that the director provided incomplete and misleading
information.
The court held that, "it is not possible to comprehend how the commission has come to this
conclusion" and that it saw nothing wrong in the director's reply that she does not know the
information because "PIO cannot manufacture the information".
The court also held that "it is not possible to accept the reasoning of the commission. There is
no substance in the observation that merely because the director said not available' and later
on corrected her statement and said that she does not know and the petitioner provided
incomplete and incorrect information.
"In this view of the matter, the order of the commission appears to suffer from a serious error
of law apparent on record and results in the miscarriage of justice," the court held.

YET ANOTHER REMITTANCE FACILITY TO/FROM

FOREIGN COUNTRIES (EUROGIRO)
The India Post being a largest network providing various services for the people in the country. We have
remittance facilities by various modes viz Money Order, eMoney Order and iMO (instant Money Order) within
our country. For remittance from foreign countries we have Western Union Money Transfer and IFS. Now with
tie-up with Eurogiro, Our Department proposed launch the service from 24.10.2009 for remittance from/to
foreign countries.
Newsitem published in the Eurogiro is reproduced below for information:-
•
India Post joins the Eurogiro community

Please welcome India Post as a member in the Eurogiro community, and an expansion of the Eurogiro payment
gateway into the country of India.
India Post plans to launch its remittance service via the Eurogiro network in October 2009. Across its vast
network of post office branches, the Post will provide its customers with cash and account transfers for both
incoming and outgoing payments.
Indians working abroad will now be able to send payments for either cash pickup at a postal branch, or request to
send cash directly to their relatives at their doorstep. India Post will provide account-to-account international
payments like the banks in India, and they also plan to provide an outbound payment service with Eurogiro
members for cash receipt.
India Post is a 100% government-owned postal and financial institution, established over 150 years ago to
promote postal services and small savings development in India. The strength of India Post lies in its vast
network and the end-to-end rural reach it provides in retail and cash management.
The Post has a vast network of 155,035 post offices (as on 31st March 2008), and is the largest postal
organisation in the world. As a result it has become a popular mechanism for last mile delivery of both private
commercial and governmental services.
India Post as a retail outlet has been increasing in popularity. The rapidly changing Indian economic scenario -
liberalization, globalization, and a widespread technological revolution –has given rise to the need for efficient
delivery of a variety of services. The Post provides not only universal postal services, but it also serves as a
useful channel for other socially significant schemes like small savings, payment of Pension, Postal Life
Insurance, especially for rural India.
The Post Office Savings Bank is the oldest and largest banking institution in India. It has over 200 million
savings accounts and provides deposit facilities at over 154,000 branches spread out throughout India. In addition
to its current deposit based activities, it also distributes a number of investment options including mutual funds,
pension funds and non-life insurance.
The country of India is the largest receiver of international remittances. The World Bank estimates that US $45
billion of remittances were received by India in 2008, compared to $27 billion in 2007. In its annual report of
2008-09, the RBI said the global economic downturn had not dampened the flow of remittances to India, owing
to many factors such as depreciation of the rupee, hike in interest rate ceilings on NRI deposits and uncertainties
in oil prices.

MICRO POSTAL LIFE INSURANCE WITHOUT

HEALTH CHECK UP FOR RURAL PEOPLE
•
People living in rural parts of the country will soon be able to avail insurance cover without being subject to
mandatory health check-ups as is the norm for life insurance policies.
The department of posts is set to launch a major micro life insurance policy which will no more require the
insurees to disclose their present health condition or diseases at the time of buying the policy, a move aimed at
expanding the coverage in rural India.
The proposed insurance scheme, which can be availed by economically weaker sections (EWS) of the society and
particularly women, will provide a risk cover up to Rs 25,000, said an official in the ministry of communication
and information technology. The aim is to cover around one-tenth of Indians and become one of the potent
players in the Indian insurance sector by easing out the procedural formalities that precedes purchase of any life
insurance scheme.
While the new scheme has been made customer friendly, the postal department will put in place system and
process to address the issue of fake claims. To ensure that relaxation over disclosing the insuree’s health
condition does not lead to wrong claims, the claimant has to file a death certificate issued by a government doctor
on the deceased’s cause of death, the official said. If the medical report says that the insuree was suffering from
any ailment that existed prior to the purchase of the insurance policy, the postal department has an option not to
honour the insurance claim. The policy premium will vary according to the age of the insuree and the duration of
the policy.
India Post expects to cover around 100 million Indians by the end of 2011 under the scheme, this policy is
assumed to play a major role in attaining this objective. The move is a part of the initiative taken by India post to
put a major thrust on its insurance services and have a strong presence in the insurance sector specially in rural
areas,” the official added.
Eight million lives and a sum of Rs 40,000 crore have been insured, since the launch of rural postal life insurance
scheme launched in 1995, under various policies offered by India Post under the rural postal life insurance. The
department also plans to align its investment norms for life insurance policies to pump in part of its daily
collections in revenue-generating instruments including stocks, a move which is likely to start from October 1,
2009.
•
With a huge presence in the country with around 1.55 lakh post offices, the postal department is slowly
developing itself as a centre for distributing diversified services like National Rural Employment Guarantee
Scheme (NREGS), life insurance and financial solutions to its customers apart from its mail delivery system

Department of Post Selected Accenture to Design

and Develop New Information Technology
Architecture and System
The Department of Post (DoP) has awarded a 45-month information technology (IT) modernization contract to
Accenture (NYSE: ACN) to design a new enterprise IT architecture and migrate the DoP to a more efficient,
reliable and user-friendly IT system.
Accenture also will advise DoP on the development of a wide-area network environment that helps connect all
post offices on which various online services can run, and will study the feasibility of implementing an enterprise
solution for the department’s core banking and advanced financial services.
“The technology enablers will help DoP transform itself by increasing operational performance and achieving
efficiencies through “last mile” connectivity,” said Krishna G.V. Giri, who leads Accenture's Management
Consulting practice within its Health & Public Service operating group in the Asia Pacific region. “Armed with
greater speed, efficiency, and flexibility at DoP, the government will be much better positioned to share various
social schemes, such as the Mahatma National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme, with even the most remote
citizens.”
Accenture’s work began in September with a business process re-engineering (BPR) exercise across key
departments and core operations, such as mail operations, banking and advanced financial systems. Following the
BPR exercise, Accenture will help select and monitor a vendor to enable the DoP to consolidate its technology
infrastructure and applications.
The project is designed to help the DoP drive greater revenue and regain market share in different services and
products, including bill payment, e-posts, life insurance, money transfer and banking.
According to Giri, DoP expects that the technology upgrade also will benefit citizens via speedier and more
efficient banking and insurance services, track and trace abilities, and retail services. In addition, DoP will be
able to compete effectively against local and international courier companies and increase revenue in the mail
and logistics business.

Post offices to enter into core banking system by

March 2010
Labels: CORE BANKING, INTEGRATED SOFTWARE, POST OFFICE COMPUTERISATION
JALANDHAR: Post office would not more limit its banking system to old and traditional
technology and would adopt core banking system, on pattern of other commercial
banks by the end of current financial year.
•
"All branches of post office banks will be connected through national computer server
for which data scanning and signatures entry was nearing completion", P R Kumar,
chief postmaster general, Punjab & Union Territory (Chandigarh) told reporters here
on Monday.
At present there were 150 lakh branches with the deposits of Rs 5.60 lakh crore of
deposits, Kumar said claiming that no other government organisation could match
such a huge customer network.
"The deposits in post office banks are not being used for any commercial purposes
like extending loans to people and all the deposits were being utilised by the
government of India for welfare schemes only", Kumar said while revealing the
differentiation between the commercial banks and post offices.
Apart from banking sector, postal department would emphasise on insurance sector
especially in rural areas, Kumar said adding that within one year it has been targeted
that over two lakh policies would be issued in Punjab only to reach the number of two
crore policies at national level by March 2010.

CHENNAI/ MUMBAI: Letters from Chennai to other metros would soon be delivered the very next day, as India Post has
acquired two airplanes. From the first week of July, two aircraft bearing the logo of India Post will take off from Chennai
and Mumbai. These freighters have been leased from Air India by India Post, under the ministry of communications, so that
your stamped mails, sealed parcels and other expressions of sentiment can get to their destination faster than ever before.
"We have been dependent on private airlines and connection flights all these years. The two dedicated aircraft will connect
all metros, speeding up delivery of even ordinary mails. Now, a letter from Chennai takes up to three days to reach Delhi.
Our aim is to deliver it the very next day," T Murthy, postmaster general, Tamil Nadu circle told TOI. The planes, each with
a capacity of 15 tonnes, will connect cities like Chennai, Mumbai, Bangalore, Ahmedabad, Surat and Nagpur. "The aim is to
have a more reliable service,'' says Manjula Parashar, chief general manager, mail business, at the postal directorate in
Delhi. For this purpose, two of Air India's old Boeing 737-200s, have been converted into freighters, says Jitendra
Bhargava, spokesperson of Air India. The cue for launching this service came from the success of India Post's first such
aircraft which flies everything from handicrafts to foodgrain on the Kolkata-Guwahati route. As a result of this aircraft,
which was launched in August 2007, birthday gifts reached the same day, businesses prospered, and the seven North Eastern
sisters were brought that much closer to mainstream India. The services of this existing aircraft will be extended from next
month to cover Delhi and Nagpur. Three citiesMumbai, Chennai and Kolkata will act as hubs for overnight transmission of
mail. Every night before the freighters leave their centres at around 11:30 pm, all mail from nearby cities will reach them.
The three Boeings will then converge at Nagpur and exchange palettes (metal sheets which carry mails sorted according to
destination cities). The aircraft will then fly back with their respective palettes. When they touch down at their centres early
next morning, local distribution services like trucks, trains and other airlines will take over. Dry runs for these aircraft will
begin later this week. (Source : Times of India)

GOVERNMENT PROPOSED NEW HEALTH SCHEME - CGEPHIS
(Central Government Employees & Pensioners Health Insurance
Scheme)
Central Government Health Scheme (CGHS) is a scheme for providing health care to serving Central Government
employees and their dependant family members. Over the years, the scheme has been extended to cover central government
pensioners, their dependant family members and certain other categories like members of parliament and ex-members of
parliament, freedom fighters etc. Employees of some select autonomous bodies as also PIB accredited journalists have also
been extended CGHS facilities on cost-to-cost basis in Delhi.
Central Government Health Scheme is available in 25 cities [Delhi (including Noida, Gurgaon, Faridabad, and Ghaziabad),
Ahemdabad, Allahabad, Bangalore, Bhopal, Bhubaneshwar, Chandigarh, Chennai, Dehradun, Guwahati, Hyderabad,
Jabalpur, Jaipur, Jammu, Kanpur, Kolkata, Lucknow, Meerut, Mumbai, Nagpur, Patna, Pune, Ranchi, Shillong and
Thiruvanthapuram]. Central Government Employees living outside the CGHS areas are entitled to reimbursement for
medical attendance and treatment under the Central Services (Medical Attendance) Rules [CS(MA) Rules]. Pensioners of
the Central Government are not covered under these rules. At present, Central Government Pensioners living in non-CGHS
areas are paid a sum of Rs. 100 p.m. for meeting their medical expenditure. Consequently, there has been a long standing
demand from Central Govt. pensioners residing in non CGHS areas for medical services at par with those available to
Central Govt. pensioners in CGHS areas. The VIth Pay Commission has recommended the introduction of a health
insurance scheme in lieu of the CGHS.
•
Government of India, therefore, proposes to provide inpatient health care services to their all personnel of the Central
Government including All India Service officers, serving and retired, and others who are covered under the existing CGHS
(Central Government Health Services) and under CS (MA) Rules [Central services (Medical attendance) Rules] through a
Health Insurance Scheme catering to their health care requirements. The proposed scheme shall be on voluntary basis for
current set of employees & pensioners but compulsory for future employees & pensioners. The existing CGHS beneficiaries
will have an option to avail CGHS facilities for OPD requirements and the insurance scheme for inpatient treatment.
With the introduction of health insurance scheme, the Central Government Employee (existing/ retired) will have the choice
to select the best available health facilities for meeting their health care and can get best available treatment in areas in the
close proximity. Click here to download expression of interest published by ministry of health.

New Delhi, Feb.11 (ANI): Union Minister of State for Communications and Information Technology,
Jyotiraditya M. Scindia, on Wednesday said that the Government is planning to launch a new rural postal life
insurance scheme soon to give protection to villagers in the event of any eventuality.
Addressing a gathering here on the occasion of the release of a Commemorative Postage Stamp and Awards
Ceremony to mark the Quasquicentennial celebrations of Postal Life Insurance, he said that the new policy
will be of Rs. of 1,00,000/- of sum assured in which a person has to contribute only Rs. 1.25 per month or
Rs.15/- per year as premium.
He said customers would not have to go to the district headquarters for medical check ups, adding that
arrangements would be made locally.
Those who dont possess standard age proof documents can now take Rural PLI policies of upto Rs. One lakh
Sum Assured. In summary, PLI is the real Jeevan Bima for the Aam Aadmi.
Scindia informed that recently India Post had enhanced the Rural Postal Life Insurance bonus from Rs.50/-
to Rs.55/- for every Rs.1,000 of Sum Assured, whereas the traditional insurers give bonus in the range of
Rs.45 to Rs.50/- only.
Today, the number of live policies in PLI and Rural PLI is almost 10 million. The corpus size is more than
Rs. 15,000 crores. The total sum assured for all policies comes to nearly Rs. 73,000 crores.
In its 125th Year, PLI has taken several steps for improving after sales services. All works of PLI now-a-
days are being done online through a web-based system and data-base of nearly 10 million policy holders are
being managed centrally at the National Data Centre.
The Minister also gave away twenty eight awards to the officials of Postal Life Insurance Scheme for their
outstanding contributions in business promotion of the Scheme.
The secretary, Department of Posts, Radhika Doraiswamy, Member (PLI) Postal Services Board Shri S.
Samant and Chief General Manager PLI Directorate Shri S.K. Sinha were also present on the occasion.
