Overview - rti application drafting legal services Registration
What is it?
The Right to Information (RTI) Act, 2005 gives every Indian citizen the right to request information held by public authorities - Central and State government departments, PSUs, courts, regulatory bodies, and even certain NGOs substantially funded by government. Information must be provided within 30 days (48 hours for life/liberty matters).
Scope of the RTI Act
'Information' under the RTI Act includes: records, documents, memos, emails, opinions, advices, press releases, circulars, orders, logbooks, contracts, reports, papers, samples, and any other material held in any form. The RTI covers virtually all information held by public authorities - with limited exemptions.
Exemptions from disclosure
Section 8 of the RTI Act exempts: information affecting national security, cabinet notes, commercial confidence of third parties (trade secrets), fiduciary information, and personal information unrelated to public activity. These exemptions are not absolute - public interest can override them.
First and Second Appeals
If the CPIO (Central Public Information Officer) fails to respond within 30 days or provides unsatisfactory information, a First Appeal lies to the First Appellate Authority within 30 days. A Second Appeal (or complaint) then lies to the Central or State Information Commission.

- Property owners, business licence applicants, and residents affected by government orders need RTI to understand the basis of decisions - approvals, rejections, environmental clearances, and policy choices.
- Journalists and activists investigating public corruption or irregularities
- RTI is the primary investigative tool for journalists and activists uncovering government irregularities - procurement fraud, land acquisition processes, contract awards, and regulatory decisions.
- Litigants needing government documents for court cases
- Parties to litigation often need government records - departmental investigation reports, original files, inspection reports, and correspondence - that are not otherwise obtainable. RTI is the mechanism.
