I had sent a RTI Application to the PIO, IOC, Indian Oil Bhavan, Kolkata – 68 on 01-09-2007. After the elapse of 30 days, I have sent the first appeal to the First Appellate Authority, Indian Oil Corporation Limited. Only after that, I received a letter from the PIO on 22-10-2007 that the mode of payment through court fee that I had exercised is not admissible as per provision of the law. Furthermore I’m advised to send the application fee through Cash against receipt / DD / Bankers’ Cheque / IPO for proper disposal of my application.
Please let me know the reference of RTI Act under which mode of payment through Court Fees stands valid in West Bengal. Furthermore please advice me the right course of action.
