Dear Experts, Whether a society registered under the co-operative act comes under the RTI act. a person appointed as a liquidator and later he retired and another person appointed in his place as a liquidator. now the previous liquidator asking the present liquidator regarding the present expenditure of the society under the RTI Act? is it genuine to ask him.is it bounden duty of the present liquidator to give details of the expenditure? is it comes under the RTI act? this belongs to A.P. State. kindly advice in this regard. thanks in advance.

No. RTI applies only on Government organisations. Official liquidator is not bound to pass on society's data to any person. Further, in what way the retired liquidator is concerned with the expenditure of the society. He has already played his role and gone, so far as his official duties were concerned.

The retired liquidator is not supposed to ask the expenditure details from the existing Liquidator, under RTI Act. There is no need to give the said particulars to the retired person.
