India Right To Information

The Bombay high court has told a city advocate who filed a Right To Information (RTI) application, seeking details of HC judges' assets and liabilities, that it was not possible to "furnish" the same. The application had been filed by lawyer Mathews Nedumpara. "I have to inform you that information regarding declaration of assets of the honourable judges of the Bombay high court is with the Chief Justice in a fiduciary capacity," said U S Srivastava, the master and assistant prothonotary (administration) who has been designated as the public information officer under the RTI Act.
