Same is my case
My RTI Application was transferred to field office and I received 20 different replies from that there was no uniformity.
What should I do?

Under the RTI Act, there are two options available to the RTI applicant;
- The applicant may file an appeal to the First Appellate Authority for getting the proper information.
- The applicant may file a complaint to the Information Commission for imposition of penalty on the PIO for providing incorrect information / inappropriate transfer of RTI application.
Before taking any step, please verify that the information sought by you was expected to be available with the public authority centrally.
