Dear Member

Please refer : TAMILNADU RIGHT TO INFORMATION RULES - RTI Guide . U dont need to pay any fee for filing first appeal with authorities under Tamilnadu State Govt.

RTI procedure is :Time limits specified in the RTI Act - RTI Guide
1. RTI Application with Fee to PIO
2. If no reply/ not satisfied with reply in 30 (or 35 days in case of submission to APIO or under Section 6(3)),
First Appeal to the First Appellate Authority (normally a officer higher than the PIO)
3. If no reply/ not satisfied with reply in 45 days to the First Appeal, then Second Appeal to the CIC/SIC (time period is 90 days)

Wait for 50 days from the date of your First Appeal and in case of no reply or not satisfied with the reply, file Second Appeal with SIC.
