Times of India: Pune: Friday,
April 25, 2014.
In a complete
disregard to the orders of the state information commission, Pune bench,
government establishments like city police, zilla parishad and Raigad police
have failed to upload information sought by RTI activist Vilas Baravkar on
their official websites.
Only the Pune
district collector has uploaded the information, so far.
RTI activist
Vijay Kumbhar has filed a complaint with the state chief information
commissioner Ratnakar Gaikwad and information commissioner Ravindra Jadhav,
Pune bench, to take action against the concerned establishments under section
18 of the Right to Information Act, 2005.
Baravkar (52)
had allegedly committed suicide at his Chakan residence by hanging himself with
a rope from the ceiling of his room last month.
He had left a
four-page suicide note on a Rs 100 stamp paper naming 78 people, including
senior police officers, relatives and villagers, alleging they had harassed him
and his family for the last many years.
He had
exposed illegal constructions in Chakan, irregularities in credit cooperative
societies and alleged fraud by trustees of a local temple in the recent past.
He was
provided with an armed guard in 2010 when he had sought police protection
following the murder of RTI activist Satish Shetty.
