COURT TELLS ICAI, TO PROVIDE ANSWERSHEET UNDER RIGHT TO INFORMATION ACT.

The Delhi H.C. on Thursday directed the ICAI to provide students with the certified copies of answersheets under the Right to Information Act.

Justice S Ravindra Bhat dismissed contentions raised by ICAI that answersheet fell beyond the perview of the RTI.

"ICAI is an Institute. You should apply pragmatism and set examples for others. YOu should start by yourself...May institutes do that and allows students to inspect their copies." Justice Bhat told the ICAI, which had challenged a Central Information Commission verdict to provide certified copied of papers to students who failed the exams.
