I, Kamal Kishore, a citizen of India, request you to kindly provide me the following information under the Right to Information Act, 2005:

8)      After you have prepared the above information, I would like to inspect your measurement books and work order registers related to these works to ensure that you have given complete information. Please let me know a date and time and the venue where I can come for inspection.

 

9)      The roads in question are totally broken. I have been commuting on this route from past 8 months on regular basis and it has been very drastic experience each time. At many places mainly at start of Wajirpur Road on this route, there is stagnant water. This also causes a lot of diseases to passer-by and people residing near these places. Please give specific reasons for the bad condition of this stretch of road (Wajirpur Road, Old Faridabad to Satyug Darshan Vasundhara Asharam, Bhopani-Lalpur Village Road, Faridabad) separately in a table format stating Name of the road, starting and ending point and the reason for poor condition.

 

10)   If any of the roads is broken due to water stagnation on the road, please intimate whether it is due to wrong design, wrong execution, poor quality material or due to clogged drains or any other reason?

12)   What action will be taken against the engineer who inspected the road and let it pass like this?

 

13)  If it is due to clogged drain, please provide the following information from the concerned department which dealt with it:

a)      When were these drains cleaned during the stated period?

b)      Give copy of the measurement book of the cleaning carried out?

c)      Provide the names of the officials who inspected and passed the payments. This means that these officials did not do their job properly. Their inaction has caused so much loss to the exchequer and so much inconvenience to the public. They are also guilty of criminal misconduct under the Prevention of corruption Act.

d)     By when will action be taken against them and what action will you take?

 

14)  The fact that these roads have broken shows that very bad material has been used in the roads. What enquiries will be made to ascertain the quality of the roads? How will you fix responsibilities? By when the enquiries will be completed?

Please give me the following information about each of the complaints:

I am willing to pay any further charges as decided by the PIO and communicated to me with a reasoned written order, giving detailed calculations for arriving at the additional charges so requested by the PIO.
