RTI Request in Electronic Forum
The section 6(1) of the RTI act states that, "A person, who desires to obtain any information under this Act, shall make a request in writing or through electronic means in English or Hindi or in the official language of the area in which the application is being made, accompanying such fee as may be prescribed..." Even though an applicant can submit appeals and second appeals under RTI Act through e-mail (I have successfully) done that but in respect to filing a RTI request an applicant cannot do so as there is no mean to submit the RTI fee of Rs 10 online. I will be glad if members of the forum can educate me on any provision thereof and what needs to be done so that the same can be implemented. regards, Sameer Sachdeva http://groups.yahoo.com/group/India-egov/
