55. Ram Bihari Yadav VS State of Bihar - 20 Apr 98

Important Points1. The probative value of the evidence is the weight to be given to it which has to be judged having regard to the facts and circumstances of each case.2. Generally, the dying declaration u/s. 32(1) of Evidence Act, 1872 ought to be recorded in the form of questions-answers but if a dying declaration is not elaborate but consists of only a few sentences and is in the actual words of the maker, the mere fact that it is not in question-answer form cannot be a ground against its acceptability or reliability.3. The mental condition of the maker of the dying declaration, alert­ness of mind, memory and understanding of what he is saying, are matters which can be observed by any person. But to lend assurance to those factors having regard to the importance of the dying declara­tion, the certificate of a medically trained person is insisted upon. In the absence of availability of a doctor to certify the above-men­tioned factors, if there is other evidence to show that the recorder of the statement has satisfied himself about those requirements before recording the dying declaration, there is no reason as to why the dying declaration u/s. 32(1) of Evidence Act, 1872 should not be accepted.

56. Central Public Information Officer, Supreme Court of India VS Subhash Chandra Agarwal - 13 Nov 19

The Chief Justice and the Judges together form and constitute the ‘public authority’, that is, the Supreme Court of India. Chief Justice of India is the head of the institution and neither he nor his office is a separate public authority. Same applies to High Courts.Right to information is not absolute. Prohibitory stipulations in Clauses (a), (b), (c), (f), (g), (h) and (i) of section 8(1) incorporate absolute exclusions. On the other hand, Clauses (d), (e) and (j) of Section 8(1) incorporate qualified prohibitions and are conditional and not absolute exemptions. Disclosure u/s 8(2) by the public authority is not mandatory or compulsive but discretionary.One’s right to information and other’s right to privacy and confidentiality both must be harmonized.PIO has to weigh the advantages and benefits of disclosing the information with the possible harm or injury to the third party on the information being disclosed. The questions of transparency and openness in judicial appointments, and confidentiality of deliberations cannot be answered in absolute terms.In matters of information on declaration of assets by the judges of the Supreme Court fiduciary relationship rule in terms of clause (e) to Section 8(1) is inapplicable.Right to speech and expression - Includes right to information. There is an urgent requirement for integrating the principles of data protection into the right to information jurisprudence.Independence of judiciary though not a new concept, its meaning is still imprecise.Section 8 balances interests between privacy right of individuals whose information may be disclosed and broader public interest in ensuring transparency, accountability and an informed electorate.Right to Information Act, 2005 being a legislation to pursue a legitimate state aim of ensuring, transparency and accountability of government and an informed electorate, is Constitutionally valid.Certain category of information such as medical information, details of personal relations, employee records and professional income can be classified as personal information.Broad principles as to how the phrase “public interest” is to be understood laid down. PIO should record reasons for denying discloser.The information with respect to which judges of the Supreme Court have declared their assets does not constitute the “personal information” of the judges and does not engage the right to privacy. The contents of the declaration of assets would fall within the meaning of “personal information” and the test set out under clause (j) of clause (1) of Section 8 would be applicable along with the procedure under Section 11. The basis for the selection and appointment of judges to the higher judiciary must be defined and placed in the public realm. Substantive standards which are borne in mind must be formulated and placed in the public realm.
