Subject: Complaint u/s 2(6) of the Consumer Protection Act-2019  against illegal and arbitral disposal of the 1st appeal No. 32 of 2026. on Dt. 23-06-2026 by putting the fake signatures of the FAA and concealing the name.
 
Sirs
 
This is to file a complaint u/s 2(6) of the Consumer Protection Act-2019 and Odisha Government Servants Conduct Rules-1959

against the following public servants of the Odisha Information Commission for serious misconduct, abuse of power, illegal acts and omissions, contempt of courts, involvement in gross irregularities, and engagement in rampant corruption as mentioned below.

01. FAA of the Home Department

02. PIO of the Home Department
03. Other
04. Secretary of the IPR Department
05. Secretary of the Odisha Information Commission
06. Others.


Sirs,

01. That, Nothing has been learnt from the reprimand to the State of Odisha by Hon’ble Orissa High Court in the case of Hemanta Nayak Vs State of Odisha, W.P. Civil No. 12399 of 2024, as nothing has been done to issue such a recommendation to the Govt. Instrumentalities to adhere to the rule of law, directions of the competent authority(s) and courts, and guidelines of the apex court, which prove that the State of Odisha and its public servants have no respect for the rule of law, prevail in this country

02. That the 1st appeal No. 32 of  2023 was disposed of on 23-06-2026 illegally and arbitrarily without communicating the date of the hearing, without giving any opportunity to the appellant, and without directing the PIO to provide the information 
03. That,  the section officer passed the Order, impersonating the FAA, as the signatures did not match, and the name of the FAA was concealed.
04. That the written statement submitted by the PIO against the appeal was never communicated to the appellant, so that the same can be rebutted; thus, the FAA acted as the agent of the PIO and its own department rather than being loyal to the constitution.
05. The FAA acted as the agent of the PIO and outrightly rejected the allegation that the RTI was not disposed of by the section office, as the reason for the same was not provided, no inquiry was ever made against the same misconduct, even though the provision of the Odisha Government Servants Conduct Rules -1959 provided for the same.
06. That the order was found to be unreasoned, cryptic, and without any grounds. Why the sought information was not available with the PIO of the Home Department, and the same is available with the police department, is not going to be digested as the Home Department is the policy maker and the parent department to the police instrumentalities.
07. That, nothing has been done by the FAA to comply with the guidelines of the apex court issued in the case of KISHAN CHAND JAIN VS U.O.I, W.P. CIVIL NO 360 OF 2021, which mandates the provider of the VC mode of hearing to the legal practitioners and litigants.
08. That, The FAA was found to be incompetent, impotent, and powerless as he justified the transfer of the RTI application u/s 6(3) of the status within the same department.
09. That, The FAA cannot direct the appellant to run from pillar to post to get the information from other PIOs, as it was the duty of the Home Department to compile and publish the information if it owns and its instrumentalities.
10. That the above allegations are only the GIST of the whole affair.
 
So you are requested to recall the Order Dt. 23-06-2026, re-hear the matter, direct the PIO to provide the information sought, and compensate the aggrieved adequately.
