Functioning of Indian Oil Corporation inRTI

The Govt of India, Ministry of Petroleum and Natural gas has been pleased to direct all the oil companies under him to give some guidelines regarding the sale of raw petroleum coke from their oil refineries on 07.05.2012. The Ministry directed them to auction RPC with certain conditions on 07.05.2012 and expects the auction process shall be initiated within 60 days, that is on 07.07.2012. This Columnist has sent one RTI application to the Public Information Officer, IOC, Marketing division, Mumbai with a request to know they  mode of auction and other allied information but unfortunately no information has been furnished by this Maharatan Public Sector undertaking nor the RTI application has been acknowledged. On one side, everybody is advocating RTI and on the other side, this is the fate of RTI application in PSUs.
