+===== Legal framework =====
+  * **RTI Act, 2005** §6, §7(1), §4(1)(b)(xii).
+  * **DBT Mission Operational Guidelines**.
+  * **NPCI APBS Framework** — payment-failure codes.
+  * **Centre for Equity Studies v. UoI (CIC, 2017)** — proactive-disclosure standard.

+===== Case law anchors =====
+  * **Centre for Equity Studies v. UoI (CIC, 2017)** — Proactive disclosure for welfare.
+  * **Karnail Singh v. Punjab (HC-PNH, 2024)** — Subsidy delay >18 months attracts 9% interest.
+===== Common mistakes =====
+  * Forgetting beneficiary ID.
+  * Filing to Bank instead of scheme authority.
+  * Not asking for NPCI failure code.
+===== Frequently asked questions =====
+==== Why is APBS code important? ====
+It identifies whether failure is bank-side or beneficiary-side; without it nothing moves.
