Introduction

The Right to Information (RTI) Act, 2005, empowers citizens to seek transparency and accountability from government departments. Filing an RTI online for Central Government departments is a straightforward process, providing a hassle-free way to request information related to policies, programs, expenditures, and more. This guide explains the step-by-step process, tips for drafting effective RTI applications, and the role of RTIwala in simplifying your experience.


Why File an RTI for Central Government Matters?

An RTI application to Central Government departments can help you:

  1. Access Information: About policies, budgets, and implementation of programs.
  2. Ensure Accountability: Seek clarification on delays or irregularities.
  3. Resolve Grievances: Address unresolved issues or disputes with central authorities.
  4. Monitor Compliance: Verify adherence to regulations, projects, or schemes.

Common Departments Where RTI Can Be Filed

  1. Ministry of Home Affairs
    • Inquiries about citizenship, passports, or security issues.
  2. Ministry of Finance
    • Information on budgets, GST, or tax policies.
  3. Ministry of Education
    • Queries about scholarships, universities, or curriculum changes.
  4. Ministry of Railways
    • Questions about train schedules, safety measures, or operational delays.
  5. Ministry of Health and Family Welfare
    • Information on government health schemes or hospital funding.

Steps to File RTI Online for Central Government

Step 1: Visit the RTI Online Portal
  • Go to the official portal: RTI Online Portal.
  • Ensure you have all relevant details regarding the information you seek.
Step 2: Select the Public Authority
  • Identify the department or ministry related to your query.
  • The portal provides a searchable list of Central Government authorities.
Step 3: Draft Your RTI Application

Frame your application clearly and concisely, including:

  1. Subject: A brief title summarizing your query.
  2. Details of Information Sought:
    • Specify the exact information you need.
    • Example: “Provide details of funds allocated and utilized under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana for the year 2022-23.”
  3. Supporting Information:
    • Include reference numbers, if applicable (e.g., complaint IDs, scheme numbers).
Step 4: Pay the RTI Fee
  • The application fee is ₹10, payable online via:
    • Debit/Credit Card
    • Net Banking
    • UPI
Step 5: Submit Your Application
  • Review your details and submit the application.
  • Upon submission, you’ll receive a Registration Number for tracking purposes.

How to Track RTI Application Status

  1. Go to the RTI Online Portal.
  2. Click on “View Status”.
  3. Enter your Registration Number and registered email ID or mobile number.
  4. View the status or updates regarding your application.

Sample RTI Application for Central Government

To,
The Public Information Officer,
[Name of Ministry/Department],
[Address of the Office],

Subject: Request for Information Under RTI Act, 2005

Respected Sir/Madam,

Under the provisions of the RTI Act, 2005, I seek the following information:

  1. [Clearly mention the first query].
  2. [Specify subsequent queries if required].

Details:

  • Period: YYYY-MM-DD to YYYY-MM-DD.
  • Reference Number (if any): XXXXXXXX.

I have paid the prescribed RTI fee of ₹10 via online mode. Kindly provide the requested information within the stipulated time frame.

Thank you,
Yours sincerely,
[Your Full Name]
[Your Contact Details]


Timeline for RTI Responses

  • The Central Public Information Officer (CPIO) must respond within 30 days.
  • For life or liberty-related matters, the response time is 48 hours.
  • If unsatisfied with the response, you can file a First Appeal within 30 days.

Common Issues and Tips for Filing RTI

  1. Ambiguous Queries
    • Avoid vague or broad questions. Be specific to receive precise information.
  2. Incorrect Authority Selection
    • Research the appropriate public authority before filing your application.
  3. Lack of Supporting Information
    • Provide reference numbers or details to help the authority locate the information.
  4. Delayed Responses
