Dear all, 30 days are 30 days by calander. we want to know what can be done to the ICs who do not issue mandatory notices to the CPIO/PIOs for delay of more than 30 days. what penalty can be imposed on ICs for violating the Act and how to proceed against the IC. --- On Fri, 19/8/11, Manoj Pai <manojpai@yahoo.com> wrote: From: Manoj Pai <manojpai@yahoo.com> Subject: Re: [HumJanenge] START OF MANDATORY PERIOD FOR RTI APPLN OR FIRST APPEAL To: "humjanenge@googlegroups.com" <humjanenge@googlegroups.com> Date: Friday, 19 August, 2011, 11:32 PM You will need to re-read the RTI Act Mr Gupta. The CPIO has to provide the information within 30 days. A reply cannot constitue as information. The FAA has to dispose off the appeal within 30 days with a speaking order. The 30 days in each starts from the date of the receipt at either office.   As for the movement of application or appeal with the office of the public authority,Section 5(4) will apply. There is no provision for any addition of number of days for each movement of the application / appeal here. The 30 days from the date of the receipt stands good.   Manoj   From: M.K.
