Rti next step

Swastik Upadhyay (Querist) 19 January 2022 This query is : Resolved
Dear All,
I filed a RTI few days ago and again I did First Appeal also and got a reply today. Reply is as follows:

3. I, as first Appellate Authority, have carefully perused the facts as available on file and concerned rules. It is stated that the PFC-I & PFC- II Division has no information to furnish to the Appellant in the matter (conveyed to the Appellant on the online RTI portal on 14/01/ 2022). Therefore, the reply given by the CPIO is in order.

4. In view of the above, the appeal is disposed off accordingly.

5. further, the RTI application is transferred to CPIO, Controller General of Accounts, Ministry of Finance for necessary action and providing available information to the applicant.

As point 5 says that they have transferred it to Controller General of Accounts,
Do I need to do anymore thing and what to do if I don't get any reply for next 30 days

Quick Summary

This discussion covers the next steps after receiving a reply to a first appeal under the Right to Information (RTI) Act. The original poster received a decision that disposed of their appeal but also transferred the application to another CPIO. The advice given is that if the applicant is unhappy with the decision or doesn't receive further information, they can file a second appeal to the Information Commission within 90 days. Alternatively, if the application was transferred, they may be entitled to file a first appeal against the new CPIO's decision.

You can file a Second Appeal to the Information Commission itself, if you are aggrieved in regard to the information, you get or if you don’t get at all, as a consequence of the First Appeal.

The Second Appeal must be filed within 90 days from the date on which the First Appellate Authority decision was actually received by you, or within ninety days, after the expiry of 45 days of filing of First Appeal, in cases you don’t get any reply at all

The appeal is disposed of, then why did RTI application transfer to the CPIO? What is the necessity of the 2nd appeal? Your query is confusing me.

the facts are not clear.

you are entitled to move to CIC.

further the application (atleast as appearing from your description)m is transferred to other CPIO. SO you are entitled to raise 1st appeal against the decision of the new CPIO to whom the request is transferred.
