Bureaucracy Today: Mumbai: Wednesday, August 26, 2015.
A petition seeking details of assets of judges under the RTI Act was turned down by Bombay High Court, stating that the Chief Justice has the capacity in his fiduciary but is sub-judiced before the apex court.
The court dismissed the petition filed by city advocate Mathews Nedumpara, challenging the orders of the public information officer and the appellate officer that the information could not be furnished as the matter is pending before the Supreme Court.
However, Nedumpara in his petition had claimed that if the details and contents of the declaration are furnished to the Chief Justice it should be disclosed to members of the public, Bureaucracy Today has learnt.
