Long-term damage: Telangana state info panel struggles to clear RTI plea backlog
HYDERABAD: The Telangana State Information Commission is struggling to clear a backlog of 17,509 pending appeals and complaints, an accumulation from the two years it functioned without a commissioner. The absence of leadership stalled the commission's work, delaying citizens' access to critical information across departments. According to the commission, common appeals include issues related to house and town planning in localities, departmental permissions for housing, land records and ownership queries, as well as information on financial allotments and revenue generation. Many seek information on whether specific schools have fire safety equipment, proposed class wise students strength and fee, sanitary certificate etc. You Can Also Check: Hyderabad AQI | Weather in Hyderabad | Bank Holidays in Hyderabad | Public Holidays in Hyderabad Speaking to TOI, information commissioner PV Srinivasa Rao said, "Many applicants submitted repeated appeals and got no replies in the past few years. We are now identifying such cases, grouping them, and passing combined orders to speed things up." One such case is that of G Srinivas Reddy, who filed multiple appeals seeking information on the financial accountability of department heads across the state govt. When the Public Information Officer responded that the data was too scattered to be compiled and shared, Reddy approached the commission. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Max Estates Estate 360: 3 & 4 BHK @ ₹6 Cr+ Max Estates - Estate 361 Book Now Undo After a delay of over two years, the commission issued a directive that the RTI request must be answered regardless of how dispersed the information may be. Gunashekar K, a resident of Khairtabad, told TOI that he had to file three appeals but still received no response. "I filed an RTI to check whether the land near my house falls under a nearby temple's ownership. But the department did not respond. I eventually had to approach the Information Commission to get things moving," he said. Chief information commissioner G Chandrasekhar Reddy added, "A major contributor to the problem is the poor response from govt departments. Under the RTI Act, departments are legally required to reply within 30 days, and that is not happening consistently," The commission has set a goal to achieve zero pendency across 30 departments in the coming months. By next year, the commission aims to expand this effort to all 22 districts.

Former Standard Chartered Research CEO moves for insolvency over unpaid dues, wrongful dismissal
Amit Bansal, the recently terminated chief executive officer of Standard Chartered Research and Technology India Pvt. Ltd (SCRTIPL—known as Solv), has approached the National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) seeking insolvency proceedings against his former employer. Bansal has alleged non-payment of dues and wrongful termination in his filing under Section 9 of the Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC), 2016. He has sought ₹1.05 crore in unpaid and statutory dues—including ₹12.4 lakh in salary up to his termination date, three months' notice period pay of ₹54.9 lakh, and encashment of 45 days' unavailed leave of ₹38 lakh. Bansal has also sought compensation for 832,330.5 vested employee stock options (ESOPs), valued at ₹24.9 crore, alleging these were lawfully earned but 'wrongfully denied or forfeited" by Solv. His total claim aggregates to ₹25.95 crore. Bansal insisted that Solv acknowledged liability for due salary, notice, and leave encashment in correspondence but failed to pay, while 'wrongfully" denying his vested ESOPs without justification. The NCLT will assess whether Bansal's claims are recognized as 'operational debt" under the IBC and if any default on payment justifies insolvency proceedings. Admission of the case could subject Solv to a court-supervised resolution, potentially altering management or asset ownership. Bansal, in his petition before the Bengaluru bench of the NCLT, said that after taking charge as CEO in April 2021 he led Solv's rise as a prominent marketplace for micro, small and medium enterprises. Solv reached nearly $400 million in valuation and $650 million in gross merchandise value by early 2025, serving over 400,000 small businesses, he added. On 19 February 2025, Standard Chartered Research dismissed Bansal. In his petition, Bansal alleged the dismissal was abrupt, without due process, and retaliatory as he had raised concerns over corporate governance issues and his exclusion from Solv's merger talks with Jumbotail Technologies. As per Bansal's petition, the termination letter specified payment of salary, notice period dues, and leave encashment. These, he alleged, remain unpaid. Bansal filed his petition on 29 July. During the hearing on 1 August, Standard Chartered Research sought time to file its response to the petition. The court has not year notified the next date of hearing. Claims before NCLT The NCLT's role in adjudicating such disputes goes beyond employment claims, said legal observers. 'The NCLT's jurisdiction includes examining whether removals of key managerial personnel are simply contractual or rise to the level of shareholder oppression or poor governance," said Shri Venkatesh, founding partner, SKV Law Offices. He pointed to high-profile precedents: while the tribunal upheld Tata Sons' right to dismiss Cyrus Mistry, in the McDonald's–Vikram Bakshi dispute, the NCLT sided with Bakshi, finding executive removal had crossed into shareholder oppression. Amir Bavani, founder of AB Legal, Hyderabad, said senior-level disputes at multinational corporations are always highly charged given the nature of the parties involved. 'Proceedings initiated by top management can change the complexion of the dispute. If the operational creditor succeeds, it could pave the way for other instances where insolvency threats prompt multinationals to proactively resolve such disputes. However, such petitions can easily be settled by compensating the personnel as per the employment contract," Bavani said. Under Section 9 of the IBC, operational creditors are entitled to seek insolvency proceedings if companies neglect undisputed dues after a formal demand notice. Bansal, who is represented by Waseem Pangarkar, partner at MZM Legal, asserted that all such procedures had been followed. Registered in India in 2019 as part of Standard Chartered's digital innovation push, SCRTIPL, under the Solv brand, became a significant business-to-business (B2B) platform for MSMEs, incubated by SC Ventures. Earlier this year, Jumbotail, a leading e-commerce and retail platform, acquired Solv India—operated by SCRTIPL—after receiving clearance from the Competition Commission of India. Jumbotail now owns 100% of this entity, fully integrating Solv's offerings with its nationwide network of neighbourhood stores and business clients. In July, Jumbotail raised $120 million in a Series D fundraising round led by SC Ventures, the investment arm of Standard Chartered Plc. 'As the matter is sub judice, SCRTIPL (Solv) will refrain from commenting at this stage. Our position has been clearly articulated in our submissions to the court, and we have full faith in the fairness and integrity of the judicial process," Solv said in response to Mint's queries. Jumbotail and Amit Bansal did not respond to Mint's requests for comment.

BluSmart Enters Insolvency Over Rs 1.28 Crore Default; Resolution May Take Six Months
Last Updated: The NCLT in Ahmedabad has admitted Catalyst Trusteeship's petition against BluSmart Mobility for defaulting on dues of Rs 1.28 crore, initiating CIRP. The National Company Law Tribunal (NCLT) in Ahmedabad has admitted a petition filed by Catalyst Trusteeship against BluSmart Mobility for defaulting on dues worth approximately Rs 1.28 crore. The order marks the initiation of the corporate insolvency resolution process (CIRP) against the electric cab operator, with NPV Insolvency Professionals Private Ltd appointed as the Interim Resolution Professional (IRP). BluSmart, once regarded as a rising player in India's electric vehicle (EV) ride-hailing space, has been under increasing financial strain in recent months. Despite raising venture capital and expanding its EV fleet, the company has struggled to manage cash flows and meet operating expenses, leading to the current insolvency proceedings. The CIRP, in the best-case scenario, is expected to take 180 days, provided there are no legal complications such as litigation from promoters. 'If things go smoothly, resolution could come within six months," said a person familiar with the process. The situation worsens with BluSmart's key backer, Gensol Engineering, and its subsidiary Gensol EV Lease, also facing insolvency action. The NCLT recently admitted separate petitions filed by the Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency (Ireda), citing defaults of Rs 510.10 crore by Gensol Engineering and Rs 218.95 crore by Gensol EV Lease. According to the shared court order copy, the tribunal said that Gensol had failed to maintain financial discipline, citing defaults on 31 March, 19 April, and 12 May 2025. IREDA in the filing said that it filed an application on May 14 under Section 7 of Insolvency and Bankruptcy code, 2016 against Gensol Engineering Limited for a defaulted amount of Rs 510,00,52,672. view comments Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
