Answer is Right!
The correct answer is D. all of them.
Information Commissions have the power to:
- Receive evidence on affidavit. This means that the Commission can accept evidence that is sworn to in an affidavit, which is a written statement that is signed and sworn to be true.
- Requisition record or copies thereof from any court or office. This means that the Commission can request records or copies of records from any court or office.
- Issue summons for examination of witnesses or documents. This means that the Commission can issue a summons to a witness to appear before the Commission to give evidence or to produce documents.
These powers are necessary to enable the Commission to conduct a thorough investigation into complaints and to make a fair and just decision.
