Hi Tarun Welcome to RTI India.
Could you please share more details of your case with us on the group. Mr Ansari handles RTI cases in a way different from the other ICs - so I would like to know what happened, and what you asked for. BTW, you cannot file a WP against an individual IC but you proceed against the CIC itself.
