MALDA, Oct. 17: Despite the approval of the officer in charge of Right to Information cell in the Malda district magistrate office, the district registrar is allegedly reluctant to show answer sheets and other related papers, for the recruitment of lower division clerks (LDC), to the applicants.
This is for the first time that a Scheduled Caste candidate, who had appeared in the competitive examination conducted by the district registrar office for the recruitment of 14 LDCs, applied to the Malda RTI cell to show his answer sheet.
Emboldened by the Right to Information Act, Mr Bijoy Kumar Ram, a resident of Tulshihata in Harishchandrapur, decided to see his answer sheet unsatisfied as he was with the final panel published recently in which his name had not figured.
Mr Ram claimed that he had correctly answered 74 percent out of the papers on the basis of which he had expected to obtain more than 51 per cent.
The department allegedly selected candidates from the Scheduled Caste who had obtained up to 50 per cent marks.
The Malda RTI cell had forwarded the application, submitted on 18 September, to the district registrar and asked him to follow RTI Act. However, the registrar so far has not complied with the instruction.
