RTI Online Web Portal launched to file applications online

The government launched a web portal https://rtionline.gov.in to promote participation of our citizens in the process of governance and policy making decisions of the government.
Minister of State for Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions and Prime Minister’s Office V Narayanasamy said this facility has presently been provided to Central Ministries but DoPT will consider extending this facility to the subordinate and attached offices of central government also.

The minister also appealed to the state governments to consider developing similar facility of filing online RTI applications.
The RTI online web portal has been developed by National Informatics Centre (NIC) at the initiative of Department of Personnel and Training.
This is a facility for the Indian Citizens to file RTI applications online and first appeals and also to make online payment of RTI fees. The prescribed fees can be paid through internet banking of State Bank of India and its associate banks as well as by Credit/Debit cards of Visa/Master, through the payment gateway of SBI linked to this site. This facility is available for all the Ministries/Departments of Central government.
This system provides for online reply of RTI applications/ first appeals, though reply could be sent by regular post also. This system works as RTI MIS also. The details of RTI applications received through post could also be entered into this system. The citizens can also check the real time status of their RTI applications/first appeals filed online.
