Simple Rule to file an RTI

[Manixit]

Anyone who wants to file an RTI, here are simple rules to file an RTI
application:

Filing a RTI is a simple process but we have to use conventional
methods as Govt. departments in India do not use e-mails or
technology.

Step 1: Application should be addressed to Public Information Officer
(PIO) of concerned department. So, for example, if we want to get
information from HUDA, Faridabad, then it should be addressed to
Public Information Officer, HUDA, Faridabad

Step 2: There is no prescribed format for writing your queries. Only
requirement is that letter subject should start with :

"Request for Information under Right To Information (RTI) Act, 2005"

Step 3: Frame your queries in points (recommended)

Step 4: At end of letter, you should have a declaration
"I do hereby declare that I am a citizen of India. I request you to
ensure that the information is provided before the expiry of the 30
day period after you have received the application"

Step 5: Fees: You can deposit fees by Postal Order (recommended) as it
is cheaper or by Bank Draft. It should be in favor of Accounts
Officer. For example, if you are writing RTI to NHAI, it should be
Accounts Officer, NHAI payable at location of concerned department

Step 6: Amount of Fees. For departments falling under Haryana Govt.
like HUDA, DTCP, Haryana fees is Rs 50. For National/Central
departments like NHAI, fees is Rs 10 only

Step 7: You should sign the application and write your postal address

Step 8: Send your letter by Registered Post only. No couriers.

Attached is a sample RTI application.
