(3.) THE applicant had filed this Original Application on 19.09.2011 by annexing as the impugned order Annexure -A (page -18), which is an information under the Right to Information (RTI) Act,2005, supplied to Shri Mahaveer Singh, the father of the applicant, through RTI Diary No. 1652 dated 10.08.2011, by the office of the Respondent No.1. This reply does not give the details of the questions, which the applicant has filed separately at Annexure A -3 (pages 23 & 24) of the OA, signed by her father, in reply to which this impugned information was supplied. In support of her contention, the applicant has relied upon the judgment order in the case of Monika vs. Delhi Subordinate Services, Selection Board & Others, decided on 09.09.2009 in OA No. 1248/2009, a copy of which has been filed by her at pages 19 & 20 of the OA. Apparently, that case also was decided on the basis of an RTI information reply obtained by Ms. Monika, the applicant of that OA, which information reply the present applicant has filed as Annexure A -4 dated 05.02.2009.
