Q: Do I need an Aadhaar card to file an RTI online?

No. Aadhaar is not required under the Right to Information Act, 2005. An email address is essential because the Public Information Officer communicates the reply by email.

Q: What is the fee for filing an RTI online?

A flat Rs 10 via the official rtionline.gov.in portal using netbanking, card, or UPI. BPL applicants pay no fee with a valid certificate.

Q: How long does the government have to reply?

Thirty days from receipt, or forty-eight hours where life or liberty is at stake. Silence beyond that is a deemed refusal under Section 7(2).

Q: Can I file an RTI in Hindi or a State language?

Yes. Article 350 gives you that right. Central authorities accept English and Hindi; State authorities accept the State language as well.

Q: What if my RTI is rejected?

File a first appeal within thirty days under Section 19(1). Free of cost. Escalate to the Central Information Commission as a second appeal under Section 19(3) if unsatisfied.
