Petitioner is seeking general information about property tax in respect of the residents those who 2 are residing in the municipal limits of Risod Municipal Council. The Information Commissioner was justified in dismissing the appeal on the ground that the information is not only general in nature, but the same is not specific and also not in respect of particular individual/s or his property.

Though it is contended that the order is not sustainable in view of the provisions of the Right to Information Act, 2005, there is no merit in the said contention. Petition dismissed. Judge.
