@victory…
i doubt if that would work because registration office simply records the transaction and not the motivation behind it. You could however file a case against the builder seeking compensation for the delay

Hi Ankur, thanks for the step by step precise information. I’m wondering whether an RTI will help in my case, which is as such……….my father along with his brothers have sold an inherited piece of land from their father to a builder who will be constructing a building and alloting a flat to each of the brothers. The problem here is that 2 of the brothers are doing separate underhand dealings with the builder over compensation for the delay in building the project and my father has no clue as to what underhand dealings are being made. Can my father file an RTI with the Registration office to find out if his brothers have registered agreements of the underhand dealings?

“As per law, all government organizations need to have a designated Information officer”. What about a non government running trust/society that runs schools” Many trusts are there in India that run schools and are exempted from taxes etc.

R/Sir,
I had sent 8th class exams fees of my friends son by speed post on 14/9/2009 f/n, from chamba (H.P.) to Secy. School education board Dharamshala (H.P.) . The distance from chamba to dharamshala is approx. 150 km and as per post office record the same post was dispatched from chamba to dharamshala at 2:00 pm & assured the 2nd day delievery at the destination. But as per school education board the post received on dated 17/9/2009, as the last date was 15/9/2009 and they demand Rs 1000/- more as late fee. As my friend was not so literate and also poor. So please suggest me that whather the problem may be sought out by rti act. if yes then is the candidate can file petition himself.
Thanks.

Hi. I want to file an RTI on the Ration Card office in Mira Rd, Thane E because an officer there refused to make a ration card in my name. He said I have to be either a widow or my name should be under my Father’s /Husband’s name in a Ration card. I find this absurd because if I can have a flat registered in my name, can adopt a child independantly, getting a Ration Card should not be difficult. Could someone please help me, I want to know whom the fees should be made payable to on the DD.

I have not done it. My dad recently gave one to check on which contractor has taken the license to repair the panchayat roads at my home town.
The road was fixed in 10 days after filing the RTI.

In Mumbai, the Regional Chapter of the Institute of Chartered Accountants conducts a weekend course on 4 Saturdays and Sundays on RTI. They may be doing it at other major centres also.
