The definition of information, as it occurs in Section 2(f), lays down scope of the type of information an applicant can seek. The underlying idea is clearly that the Applicant’s entitlement for information is only in respect of the categories of information mentioned in Section 2(f) read with Sec.2(i) and (j). It is not open to an applicant to ask, in the guise of seeking information, queries to public authorities about the nature and quality of their actions. The RTI Act also does not cast on public authority any obligation to answer queries. Applicant’s right extends only to seek information as defined in Section 2 (f) & (j) either by pinpointing the file, document, paper, record or sample etc, or by mentioning the type of information as may be available with the specified public authority. RTI Act is also not a tool to settle Grievances. These are to be decided on merit by competent authority of each Public Authority.

If you have sought some information as may be defined in RTI Act, from CPIO, you can file First Appeal before the First Appellate Authority of same Public Authority. If you do not know the address of FAA, you can address the FA like - First Appellate Authority (under RTI Act), Office of the CPIO, ....................... Address.
