The Public Information Officer (`PIO') had vide its reply dated 27th January, 2017 refused the disclosure of the information on the ground that note sheets are secret documents. On 7th March, 2017, the first appeal was rejected on the ground that the documents and information were confidential in nature. However, CIC has directed disclosure of these documents as extracted above. 6. Mr. Om Prakash, ld. Counsel appearing on behalf of the FCI submits that the matter is squarely covered by the judgment of the Supreme Court in Girish Ramchandra Deshpande v. Central Information Commissioner and Ors. ' (2013) 1 SCC 2012 wherein it has been held that service records relating to third parties would be exempted under Section 8(1)) as the same constitutes personal information. He also relies upon the judgment of this Court in ' Union Public Service Commission v. R.K. Jain ' 2013 (196) DLT 170 . 7. The fact that the information sought also included note sheets of the vigilance case of a third party is not disputed in the present case. In view thereof and in view of the settled legal position, the CIC's order is not sustainable and the same is set aside. 8. The petition is allowed in the above terms. All pending applications are also disposed of.
