I have been to Mumbai Paasport office..No one really helps you out there .Infact no one is even willing to talk and the long ques are not to be mentioned. Just in case i do not find the right person to whom i can personally submit the form to can i submit it in the GPO (Read it in one of the posts that it can be donein Hyderabad). So was wondering if Mumbai has teh same facility too
First of all it is a pleasure to help a person like you because you have spent time on the forum and read the related posts and started learning the nuances of RTI.

Yes, RTI application for central Public Authorities (RPO is one) can be submitted via designated Post Offices. The designated post offices in Mumbai are:

Mumbai Central Manager (CCC) Mumbai Central HPO, Mumbai
- 400008
23071296 /
23090284
23060623
ssp_west1@rediffmail.com

============================

Mumbai GPO. Manager (CCC) Old GPO Building, Mumbai -
400001.
22623120 /
22620343
22623120 /
22621499 /
22622323
directorgpo400001@yahoo.com

==============================

Can I also request you for two more things:

1. Please continue with the RTI Application process till its logical conclusion even if you get your passport. Many applicants forget to carry on or give up the RTI process as soon as the problem is solved. This results in the officers at RPO committing the same mistakes again and again.
If you carry the process till its logical conclusion, you will be of help to other citizens who will get a better response from the RPO in future.

2. If the RTI route helps you in securing your passport, please try to convince everyone in your immediate family, friends, neighbors, colleagues and even your enemies to use RTI for their regular problems. You can give your own example of success.

Please also share your success story in the relevant section of this forum so as to encourage new users.

All the best !
