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.
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.

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.

"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.

Despite the soaring prices of gold, here's some reason to feel good for all the
government officials, who are willing to purchase gold coins this festive season.
For the ongoing festive month, the Post Office department has launched a scheme to
give a rebate of 6 per cent on the purchase of gold coin from September 24 till
October 24 to all the government officials.
Besides this, a scheme for general customers was also launched where 0.5 gram gold
would be given free to all those who would purchase 10 gram gold from the post
office. "To avail this scheme, the customers are required to buy two coins of 5 gm
each or a single coin of 8 gm or two coins of 1 gm each. Out of these two schemes a
customer can only opt for one."
Notably, all across the country the Indian Postal Department along with a private
financial firm is selling 24 carat gold coins to all the post offices.

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)

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.
