Dear Friends,
Where can i download a common RTI form from the net?:confused:
Could you please give me the link.
I think many people are put off by using RTI because they do not know how to go about it for specific purposes. Like there is a form for the Municipal Dept
another for asking a question to the Zilla Parishad, etc.
Pls send me the link to download the common form for filing RTI which i can use.
I want to file an RTI to the Education Dept of MCGM and one to Uddhav Thackeray.
Please advice me on the common form for Filing RTI to different organizations.

Dear Girth,
Hema has done a great job.
In RTI Act there is no specified form. You can ask information just by writing a letter and details of the information asked by you.
The idea behind ding away with formats and form was to ensure the information is not denied on the ground that it is not requested in the requisite format.

Any of the format is good which suits your requirement. the form provided by Hema are very good and capture the essence of the RTI and can be readily used.
