RTI First Appeal Drafting
First appeal to the FAA when PIO ignores or denies your RTI.
Why act now: First appeal must be filed within 30 days of PIO's response (or 30 days of the deemed-refusal date). Miss it and you start the whole process again.
About this service
Drafted first appeal under Section 19(1) of the RTI Act 2005 to the First Appellate Authority of the department, citing the specific defect in the PIO's response — non-response within 30 days, mala-fide denial under Section 8 exemptions, partial reply or evasive language. Covers the 30-day filing window and includes a Section 19(3) Information Commission escalation template.
What you'll get
- Drafted first appeal to the FAA
- Section 8 exemption rebuttal
- Section 19(3) escalation template
- Filing-window tracker
Documents to keep ready
