Hello Sir/Mam, I have sent an RTI application to PIO Senior Superintendent of Police for some information regarding the information on Accident happened on 30 december 2016 as someone called the control Room and helped me. Now when i filed the application he has replied that they have only records of incidents which happen under 30 days after 30 days their data gets erased or something like that. But when i tried to contact the UP100 lucknow team they said its kept safely with them and i have to gather some information like Event ID and mobile number of the person who made a call to 100. As i dont have these details thats why i filed the application to PIO SSP ALLAHABAD for the information but they replied with no records found after 30 days. Here can i challenge the Appellate authority of SSP ALLAHABAD on the grounds that he didnt transferred the application to the Right PIO for Information where he could have sent the application to lucknow and fetched the information from there. Please help me with possible options available to me in this regard. Thankyou Sent from my XT1663 using RTI INDIA mobile app

I have filed and online RTI application to MHRD. I requested to give me copies of reports sent by UGC to MHRD in one particular scheme. UGC was supposed to send the monthly reports to MHRD and I have asked for that reports. There was no reply from the PIO and after 40 days I filed the first appeal to FAA of MHRD. It's being 15+ days and there is still no response. I was wondering, why MHRD is taking so long time to given the copies of the reports. Can anyone clarify 1. If monthly reports of the scheme of UGC are marked as confidential reports, then PIO can deny me the copies. 2. PIO has not replied after 40 days so I filled the first appeal. Now, FAA can still deny the monthly reports of the scheme of UGC by citing confidentiality clause (if any). 3. If FAA denies the Information citing any clause. Does this mean that PIO is not guilty of not replying withing 30 days timelimit?

Hello All, I had filled a 2nd RTI appeal online through Central Information Commission, it had been more than a month and no CPIO has been assigned to my case (as checked in status). Even, for the RTI first appeal also no CPIO had been assigned. And didn't get any response from the concerned dept. Please, guide me what action I can take next, it has been already about 5 months since I filed the RTI request and not getting any response. Looking for your suggestions. Thanks, Smit.

I was working for a Bangalore based IT company between 1999 and 2004. I left the organization on 31-mar-2004. I didn't remember whether I withdrew my EPF amount of the organization. But I am sure I didn't transfer the amount to my next employer. Of late, I applied for my EPF withdrawal through the Bangalore organization. I got a letter from EPF Office, K.R. Puram, Bangalore stating that the claim was settled on 24-Jun-04. Unfortunately I am not able to recall it. I checked my ICICI bank transaction history of 2004. I didn't find any clue of having received the EPF amount. Now I have the following queries. 1) The claim was settled within three months since I left the Bangalore Organization (31-Mar-2004). I was told that if someone wanted to withdraw their EPF before retirement, they need to wait for a few months since they left the organization and only the claim can be processed. In my case, it had been settled within three month since I left the Bangalore organization. Is it possible? 2) Now I want to know the full details of My EPF account of the Bangalore organization like what was the balance amount available in the account when I left the organization and If the settlement is done, how the EPF amount was sent to me (through DD/directly credited in my bank account). How to get this details? Please help me. I am looking forward to response

Hi, I had sent one RTI to RTO Gurgaon office , asking how can one claim refund of tax for vehicles which were earlier registered in Gurgaon but now moved to another state & registered there. For this I sent RTI to RTO Pune & RTO Gurgaon. RTO pune office replied promptly saying this will need to be applied to RTO Gurgaon and they will give all info. However despite waiting for almost 4 months I have not recieved any reply from RTO Gurgaon. I have put Rs.10 court fee stamp and also attached Rs. 10 IPO along with my RTI> Is there something specific that needs to be followed for this? How can I follow up on this RTI? I am not in Gurgaon currently , so is this reason for them to no reply to me ? Or in other words can I appeal this delay without physically going to RTO gurgaon office?

Hi, I have filed 5 RTI applications in the registrar cooperative societies office related to corruption involved in the appointment of Arbitrators and Decisions of Arbitrators influenced by the few Advocates working there.As I thought most of the staff is involved ,I didn't received any reply not to mention I am hoping same sort of treatment for my First Appeal or some sort of delay tactics by them. # My question is How much time I should wait before Filing 2nd Appeal in case I don't receive any reply. # Should I file my First appeal combing all my RTI's or should I file separate appeals for seperate RTIs. # How can I raise the issue of penalty in my first Appeal. # As Registrar cooperative societies is the most corrupt department How can I save myself from them during my visit to RCS. Can through RTI I can initiate any action against the advocates who are having nexus with Arbitrators and the department of RCS. It here important to mention that few of those Advocates were retiree from the same department and are taking undue advantage of their links.

Will my right to file an appeal cease after expiry of 30 days from this intimation? If not then till what period shall I wait as the APIO has not given the exact time period but has written “atleast one more month”? Please advice.
