If you want to learn about ‘How to draft an RTI Application’, kindly read this here!
You will need a proof, that your RTI application has been received by the PIO. The tested methods to submit a RTI application are:
- Personally, by hand: Please ensure that you get your copy of the application and proof of payment duly stamped, signed and dated, either by the PIO or by the inward department
- Registered Post AD: The AD card will act as proof of submission, after it is returned to you by the postal department. In case the AD card does not come back with a proper stamp, signature and date of receipt, follow up with the despatching post office to get the AD card completed
- Speed Post (A postal department service): Once the application is sent by Speed Post, track it on http://www.indiapost.gov.in/Speednew/track.aspx and keep a print out of the delivery status carefully with you
Do not use ordinary post, private courier companies, etc. since these will not provide you with a confirmed proof of delivery.
Designated Post Offices:
In order to facilitate citizens in filing RTI applications, the government has designated certain Post Offices for accepting RTI applications addressed to Public Authorities (PA’s) under Central Government. These cannot be used for submitting RTI Applications addressed to State PA’s, Legislatures, Courts, etc.
A list of designated Post Offices is available here:

Your drafting of RTI application would depend upon the Authority from which you require information.If it is a Central Govt Authority or a PSU or a PSU Bank,there is NO Form prescribed in Central Govt.You have to ensure that you provide all required info viz.Your Name,Address,Phone No,and of course the details you want from the dept.But If you have a RTI query against the state govt,the rules very from state to state e.g.In Gujarat,the Govt has notified the format for making application under RTI.So,one has to comply with it.The other states may or may not have prescribed the format for making RTI application.
Yes you are right.
I learnt that a few days ago.
I am more into working of central govt rather than the state gov.t but very soon i’ll be compiling a format for all the state govt.
Thanks for the input though

Just write an RTi asking about the status of the complaint. If he does not reply you go and file it to an applete authority, They will take it up.
