A Comprehensive Guide to Right to Information Act, 2005 for Public Information Officers, First Appellate Authorities and other Government Servants

Ensuring a time bound reply to the RTI applications is an additional responsibility for most of the Public Information Officers (PIOs) and the First Appellate Authorities (FAAs). While a plethora of literature exists for the applicants, there is a virtual absence of reading material which looks at the RTI Act from the point of view of a PIO. This book aims at helping the PIOs and the FAAs in fulfilling their duties efficiently as per the Act.

This Guide is based on a detailed study of more than 50,000 CIC Orders and hundreds of Judgments of Courts. Some of topics comprehensively discussed are :

Is the applicant entitled to file application?
Does the applicant seek `information`?

Is the payment of fees as per law?
Has the `Life or Liberty` been claimed?
