► The First Appellate Authority has adjudicated my RTI appeals. His order speaks as under:
1) The present appeals are partly allowed, the Public information officer is hereby directed that he shall carry out re-examination of records available in the department and provide the eligible information, if any to the applicant free of charge within 30 days from the date of this order.
2) If the parties are aggrieved by the above decision, they may file second appeal within 45 days at the address below.
The said order of FAA is undated. Since it is common order for about 20 RTI appeals, he has not discussed any of grounds of appeal.
I had requested the concerned First Appellate authority to recuse himself from adjudicating the appeals filed by me since I have made serious allegations alongwith documentary evidence. The FAA has mentioned about my recusal letter as “… and wrote various application to this authority/department regarding recusal of the undersigned from these appeals which was duly put up before the Secretary Sir of the Department”.
Now I request valuable opinion since Iam preferring second appeal before State Information Commissioner in respect of following:
A) Should I file Individual appeals or one single appeal against all orders.
B) Main grounds of appeal are not a speaking order, FAA has not at all discussed grounds of appeal etc
C) Can I plead that the orders should be set aside since the order is passed by a FAA whom I requested to recuse himself from adjudicating the appeals.
D) Legal sanctity of undated order.
Since the FAA has adjudicated the appeals, is it proper to file an RTI Application seeking details of hearing proceedings as FAA is a quasi-judicial officer and has to record the proceedings as to how he arrived at the decision.
