(Oral) Grievance of the petitioner, in the present writ petition, is that the information sought was supplied after a delay of seven months, therefore, the erring official should have been fastened with liability under the provisions of Section 20(1) of the Right to Information Act, 2005. State Information Commissioner, Haryana, accepted the apology of the erring official and took into notice that delay in supplying the information and held that delay was not willful and cautioned the officer to remain careful in future. State Information Commissioner, Haryana, had also awarded compensation of Rs.1,000/- to the petitioner.
