Request to provide Punjabi font's information on website

To The Honourable Chief State Information Commissioner (Punjab),

SCO 84-85, Sector 17-C, Chandigarh Phone: 0172-4630054,

SUB: REQUEST TO DESCRIBE THE PUNJABI FONT IN WHICH ORDERS HAVE BEEN MADE ON SICP WEBSITE



Sir,

The State Information Commission Punjab has started making orders in Punjabi Font. Sir, there are 184 Punjabi fonts. No body has downloaded all the available fonts. As you know in Punjabi fonts the orders can be read in the particular font in which it has written if you have downloaded the specific font on your computer. I took the professionals help to read the order made by Hon’ble commissioner S. Darbara Singh Kahlon, and continued to download all the available fonts. Up till 60 fonts I could not read the order. As in English language, the order can be read in whatever font it has been loaded. The type of different fonts may be different but in Punjabi language one can not read the document, secondly if one can read in other fonts one can not understand the meaning if it is in different font. So, kindly go through Anmol lipi, amarlipi, anmol true type font, Amrlipi, gurblib font, gurbib_ font, LMP_TARA font, Amar LIP_L, AMR-Heavy, Anmol_l, anmol_t, anmol_s, anmol_K, gur_rais and so on the names are in 184. Unless and until You have downloaded all those fonts and then keep on searching in which font it has been loaded. Then only you can be successful in reading not like English. As it can be read in any one font it has been loaded but should be in English.

Sir, it is a tedious problem for every citizen of Punjab to view the orders. Though it is loaded on the internet but kindly let us know how one can read unless one don’t know in which font it has been loaded.

Sir, it is very disgraceful for all the RTI activists of Punjab to go through such a hardship to read the orders. I would like to brought the matter in your knowledge to kindly describe in the website of the State Information Commission Punjab that the orders will be downloaded in the specific Punjabi font and the persons who like to view the orders can download the specific font and kindly make it mandatory to load the orders in the specific font only. Sir, we are information seeker so the decisions should be provided to the public.

Sir one keep on tossing that the matter will be loaded in this font or that font. It is a matter of ethics and should be decided in public’s favour due to the responsibility of the State information commission to provide the information without any sort of hassles. The system adopted to provide decisions by the State Information Commission Punjab is not fair and irresponsible to maintain the people friendly decisions. The simple Punjabi language font in which the particular decision has been made kindly search by yourself without going to the particular font. I am sure you will face the same problem which I got. I got successful after loading all 184 fonts of Punjabi language and then move to one by one to read the matter. It took continuous labour of 8 hours without fail.

Kindly look in to the matter and do the needuly.

NON RENEWAL OF NOTARY CERTIFICATE

Sir , I have been duly appointed Notary by Govt of Rajsince 1992. My certificate of Notary was to be renewed from 21.07.2007 for which I duly applied to the Govt. but the matter was pending. It is disclosed to me that The Govt of Raj decided not to renew the certificate of all the Notaries pending since 2007 on the ground of certain amendment in the Notaries Rules and consequently rejected the Renewal applications of about 600 Notaries of the State, including me, without assigning any reason . is the Govt of Raj is empowered to do so? Is the decision of the Govt is legal and Constitutional. If not what remedy is available to me? I have file a Writ in HC Raj which is pending.

Precedential value of High Court Judgments

Sir/Madam,

let me know whether a subordinate judge (say, a magistrate) in Karnataka in bound by a single judge's judgment of Delhi High Court when no contradicting judgments of either the Karnataka High Court or The Supreme Court is available?

Whether a High Court can strike down any provisions of the Central Acts?

Whether slighting the judgments of persuasive value by a subordinate judge amounts to contempt?
