M.K.Gupta

Delhi Development Authority incurred approx. Rs. 25,000 on CFLs and other accessories for lighting the herbal park near Post Office Market, Sector 6, Dwarka. Due to carelessness of its staff, the nine lights continued to illuminate round the clock from the time of their fixing till they fused or developed faulty. M.K. Gupta, Jt. Secy, Dwarka Forum inquired from the DDA whether the loss will be recovered from the faulty staff by filing RTI application. Over three and half months of the delivery of RTI application and after filing the first appeal, Director (Hort.) North-West informed that the loss will be recovered from the faulty/erring staff.
