WoW.... Hats off to your predictions and sources Sir.
Major Murli
The verdict is out—so is our prediction!!
Who is responsible for reported slowdown in India?
This is History (1110)
Politics is a profession; a serious, complicated and, in its true sense, a noble one.
In the power corridors and business arena a big question is being asked that was the recent financial stress govt sponsored ? The way Nirmala Sitharamn , Finance Minister threw a life boat to the sinking economy indicates that harsh measures were deliberately included in the budget to terrorize business houses and common men. Even NITI Aayog, RBI, Corporate and Business groups, especially auto sector, were critical of gov's tax terror and were demanding relief.
After Murli Manohar Joshi and Arjun Singh, finally HRD has a senior hand on minister Ramesh Pokhriyal,who is people friendly with vast state government experience as Chief Minister to handle an important education portfolio. With equally competent and hardworking department secretaries HRD will initiate major reforms once national education policy is accepted and rolled out.
Adjacent to my Office is the Office of a Corporate Strategist... one of the Partners drops into my Office for Coffee and gup-shupp pretty often....VJS

Logic used is not legally proper
The reason given by information commissioner for not providing the information is not proper. All the transfer / promotion/ pay fixation / superannuation orders are liable to be made public suo-motu by virtue of the fact that they are public function. Thus, even though the order is for disclosure, the logic used is not legally proper.
Sujata
Just passing a right order is not enough
Just passing a right order is not enough, the reasons should be fair and just. The poor state of affairs of RTI implementation in India is due to the method of selection of Information Commissioners. Most are retired bureaucrats with little understanding of the RTI Act. The poor orders passed by them show that a change is much needed.
Sulekha
Information about the employees
The appellant was compulsorily retired by the Bank of India and thereafter aggrieved by the action taken, he obtained a favourable order from the Central Government Industrial Tribunal. The order passed by the CGIT was challenged by the Bank of India and while admitting the case, the High Court directed the bank to deposit the amount of arrears ordered by CGIT payable to the appellant with the Registrar through a nationalized bank and secure it for a period of five years. He sought information regarding employees who joined after 01.09.1977, their dates of promotions, their cadre and also their dates of Superannuation. The information was denied as being exempt from disclosure under section 8 (1) (d), (e) and (j) of RTI Act. He claimed the information was needed to ascertain as to whether the junior employee(s) had been promoted and whether he was entitled for higher back wages. The CIC held that the information may be made available to him so that the administration of justice can be delivered by ascertaining as to whether some junior had been promoted in terms of Central Government Industrial Tribunal order and whether he was entitled for higher wages.
Comments
As per section 4 (1)(b) (ix), a public authority is required to suo-moto publish a directory of its officers and employees. Further, section 4 (1)(b) (x) requires the public authority to proactively disclose the monthly remuneration received by each of its officers and employees.
