Alok Tholiya One Madhukar Purohit had his names enrolled in jaipur and Mumbai. Against my complaint to Kherwadi Assembly Election officer for deletion of name Purohit on oath wrote to election officer that his name does not appear anywhere except in Kherwadi assembly constituency. I furnished all records to prove that his passport, his business licences, his bank accounts , his mobiles, his phones, his club memberships, all 5 vehicles are all registered at his Jaipur address where he owns a palatial bungalow. First they continued his name. Then I gave them as proof copy of election roll of Jaipur where his name was appearing FOR YEARS.So I finally made two requests to Kherwadi Election Officer that not only now his name be deleted but also necessary action be taken on him for lying before quasi judicial body as well as for enrolling with full knowledge names at two places. They deleted his name but did not take action on his extra legal acts. Then I wrote to higher ups but heard nothing from them so I filed RTI. PIO did not reply. Then First appeal officer did not bother. Then I went to SIC. He asked them to give all papers in file but did not ask them to take action. But worst is he did not take action on PIO. When I made repeat complaint then he directed Election Commissioner to take departmental action. 10 moths have passed but no action has been taken by Collector Western Suburbs , Mumbai who is supposed to act. So RTI has been weakened by two ways one SIC delaying orders and second not punishing erring PIO's.
