LUCKNOW: In response to a query under the Right to Information (RTI)
Act, the the Central Information Commission (CIC), New Delhi, denied
it had any 'frivolous or personal-in-nature' applications available in
the records. This is against statement of chief information
commissioner (CIC) Satyanand Mishra at a seminar on RTI, organized in
the city recently, in which he said, people had not understood the

central information commission (CIC) were personal in nature, adding
that information should be sought in public interest. In response, RTI
activist Urvashi Sharma moved the commission which denied receiving
queries frivolous or personal in nature.
