Samjho📨 How do I file an RTI?
For central government offices, apply online at rtionline.gov.in. The fee is ₹10; there is no fee if you are below the poverty line (attach your BPL certificate). The officer must reply within 30 days, or within 48 hours if it is about someone’s life or liberty. If there is no reply in 30 days, you can file a free first appeal within the next 30 days.
