Am I to close the case or is there any away to reopen the case. The casse is now 3 years old involving several hundereds of Crores - I took so much risk in reporting complaint. The way the case has been unceremoniously closed really hurt me - as I have choosen unbiased way of reporting systematically to all Officials including CAG, CBI and the case is very genuine. One can get the informations from CVC (quoting their Ref:611/05/10) under RTI Act and they will get to knopw the seriousness of the case, which has been ordered to be closed.
RTI Act provides relief to every Indian who is seeking information about corruption by attending each complaint and replying it within one month's time. They can not close the case merely by taking administrative action against the defaulters. You are eligible for getting the complete information as it relates to corruption charges and your request thus can not be overlooked. Delay of three years does not make any difference in this case.
CVC not for discouraging the corruption
In most of the cases CVC does not take any action againt the big fishes but it is prompt in action on the basis of false reports to show that CVC is prompt in action against the corruption.
We can hardly expect any action from CVC where complaint exposed corruption involving crores of rupees losses to Government. It appears not advisable to complaint to CVC if corruption involves huge losses to Government.
