NEW DELHI, June 30:
The Communist Party of India (CPI) has become the first political party to respond to an RTI application after a CIC order declared parties as public authorities but underlined that it does not come under the transparency law, the party said today.
Responding to an RTI application, the CPI has said it gives information to I-T authorities and the Election Commission on regular basis and stands for “transparency of income and sources of income”.
The party said it has not appointed any Public Information Officer so far.
“According to our understanding, we are not yet part of the Information Act. However, we reply to your queries,” CPI General Secretary Sudhakar Reddy said. (UNI)
