The Central Information
Commission (CIC) has directed authorities to reveal how many Rs 2,000
and Rs 500 notes were printed daily after demonetization till November
30, 2016, an RTI activist said on Saturday.
Gurugram-based Right
To Information (RTI) activist Harinder Dhingra had sought the
information regarding the number of notes printed daily from November 9,
2016 to November 30, 2016.
Dhingra applied for the information through RTI Act on February 23, 2017.
The
Central Public Information Officer (CPIO) earlier refused to share the
information, Dhingra told IANS. The second appeal was filed on August
16, 2017.
Dhingra said that after a hearing on November 30, 2018,
Information Commissioner Sudhir Bhargava on December 5, 2018 issued an
order to provide the information.
"Number of notes printed on
daily basis from November 9, 2016 to November 30, 2016 was not so
sensitive as to attract the exemption provisions under section 8(1)(a)
of the RTI Act, therefore CPIO has been directed to provide the
information sought," the order read.
Orders on banning the then existing Rs 1,000 and Rs 500 notes were implemented from the midnight of November 8, 2016.
