The state chief information commissioner, Ratnakar Gaikwad heard 349 appeals in a week creating a record of sorts. The feat was also possible because of series of applications that were filed by same individuals that were clubbed together and heard in one go. Gaikwad, as of now, holds the record of hearing most number of appeals, surpassing that of Shailesh Gandhi, former Central Information Commissioner.
