Not providing information under RTI Act is deficiency in service under CPA
There is good news for those information seekers under RTI Act, who inspite of their best efforts and intentions are not provided information by CPIO. The issue whether failure to furnish information without valid reason constitutes a deficiency in service for which compensation can be sought by filing a consumer complaint has been decided by the National Consumer Commission in a trendsetting judgment.
To read the details CLICK.
An applicant under the RTI Act has to pay fees for getting the information, and hence he acquires the status of a consumer. If there is any deficiency in service in respect of providing such information, a complaint could be filed under the CPA for claiming compensation. This landmark and historic judgment is a new milestone, both for RTI as well as consumer activists, for holding the authorities accountable to the citizen.

Sharad Pawar's ministry compromises interest of Indian Consumer - BIS Registration Scheme notified
Details of the registration scheme (closely guarded secret of DOCA and BIS) are now available in BIS Rules, 1987. A new chapter IV A has been inserted. Notification issued in this regard will posted on the blog shortly. This notification has been merged in the BIS Rules.
gives general guidelines for a specific product certification system.
It is applicable to a third-party product certification system for determining the conformity of a product with specified requirements through initial testing of samples of the product, assessment and surveillance of the involved quality system, and surveillance by testing of product samples taken from the factory or the open market, or both. ISO/IEC Guide 28:2004 addresses conditions for use of a mark of conformity and conditions for granting a certificate of conformity.
BIS Product Certification scheme was first distorted by Simplified Procedure and now further distorted by this scheme. All essential elements like
determining the conformity of a product with specified requirements through initial testing of samples of the product, assessment and surveillance of the involved quality system, and surveillance by testing of product samples taken from the factory or the open market, or both, are missing in this Registration Scheme.
Why first BIS and now BIS plus ministry are out to compromise the interest of the consumer? All controls on manufacturers
are being
relaxed one after the other. Appointment of agents, grant of licenses based on the report of chartered engineer, recognizing self-test report and now this registration scheme are all to please the manufacturers and sacrifice the interest of the consumer.
