An extremely useful site which is comprehensive and supports a layman's vision of attaining justice in this corrupt world. Hats off to you gentlemen, keep up the good work. I just happened to scan the television channels @ 1120Hrs today and was lucky to have sighted your site. I liked the cost breakup given for filing an application. May ALLAH help you in the honest endeavour and be your guiding light in achieving stupendous success in every venture which you may start to help the common man who does not have access or is ignorant.

What is the Right to Information Act?

  • Right to Information Act (RTI), passed in 2005 provides to every citizen of India right to ask information held by a Public Authority
  • Now you can quiz the authorities about delays in your passport application, funds spent by your MP or just about anything
  • The information can be asked through Public Information Officers(PIO) in every government department
  • No reason needs to be given for seeking information
  • Cost (directly through the PIO):  Rs. 10 - Rs. 50. Cost (online through rtination): Rs. 125 (View cost break-up)
  • PIO penalised through deduction in salary if information not provided in 30 days

 

The RTI Act establishes a system of feedback in the government machinery. The government runs on the tax payers money, and now the tax payer can check if his money is being utilised in a proper manner. Just as in a company, the boss who pays the employee has every right to question him and check him. The employee is answerable to his boss.
