Mrunal comments
Wait a minute, why are you (UPSC) giving this information to me? Afterall if Subject wise marks of the candidates is information personal to them, hence exempted under Section 8/1/j of R.T.I (like you said in previous question), then these CSAT marks of each paper, should also be personal to them, because you make prelims cut off list after combining the marks!
Mains Answersheets of toppers (2011)
Q10. Please provide me the answer scripts of the top 5 candidates of the select list of Civil Service Mains (CSM-2011).
UPSC replies
The information cannot be provided as Answer Sheets of Civil Service (main) have already been weeded out as per the Record Retention Schedule approved by the Commission.
Mrunal comments: Too bad. These toppers’ answersheets could have served as lighthouse for future aspirants (especially since UPSC refused to give ‘model-answerkeys for mains exam’ in my previous R.T.I application.
Optional subject removal, Nigavekar Committee

Please furnish information on the status of the Nigavekar Committee appointed by the UPSC, including the copy of the mandate setting up the committee, and the copies of mandates giving extensions to the said committee, if any. However, if the Committee has submitted its report, please give a copy of the report. Has UPSC given any deadline/ time limit to that committee to frame its report?
UPSC replies
It is informed that Prof. Nigavekar Committee Report has been received by the Commission on 30.8.2012 and the recommendations of the Committee, after due consideration of the Commission have been forwarded to Govt. of India on 31.10.2012 and their response is awaited.
It is further informed that the copy of the report/recommendations have not been made available to Public Information Officer by the Public Authority. Thus, Seaion 8(1)(d) of the RTI Act, 2005 is invoked, Public Authority being affected third Party.
Mrunal Comments:
Well, I already knew that a week before (thanks to Mr.Partho). Seems UPSC is going to do everything to protect the Top Secret information related to optional subject removal, disregarding the fact that many candidates are in limbo and coaching factories are making a killing due to this uncertainty.

Why there is no cut off for IFS EXAMS PH(Locomoter) category,is there restriction of ph category in certain upsc services.
Mrunal,(On negative comments on your blog)
I wonder how people criticize people even if they clear CSE with AIR-2. They should know that preliminary round is meant only for qualifying, it wouldn’t matter even if you score 300/400.And Mr.raman and neha, you think that Rukmani Riar could not make a good administrator because she got 70/200 in Paper-1!!! Am sure you must not even be capable of clearing even a bank clerical exam as such criticism comes only from incapable guys(Like: heard many idiots saying how sachin should play, his wrong choice of shots even though he is the greatest batsman in the world and you don’t know even how to even hold a bat).
It’s better to ignore such comments though, and Mrunal should delete such comments by ‘neha’ and ‘raman’.
is upsc selecting in subject wise? eg, if most of the candidate are opting for public administration say 70%.
the rest 30% were other subject.is there any advantage for candidate opting for other subject?
hi
i filed an rti with upsc to provide me with photocopies of my evaluated answersheets of csm 2012. but upsc has denied it citing section 8(1)d of rti act 2005. kindly advise me as to how i should proceed further.

Do u know some NGOs for OBC(in Delhi) that can help me in the process of getting justice on the reservation issue( I m an OBC cand., had there been 1 seat for OBC i would have been selected for examiner, pls someone rply soon
thank you mrunal ji for u r effort towards the aspirants.
