File simple RTI application under Life or Liberty clause and seek information as follows.  The authorities must respond within 48 hours.  Also go for first appeal if they fail to respond, and after one week of making your application, go for second appeal to State information Commission.   This may cost you less than Rs.100/- towards Fee (Rs.10), Postage (Rs.22 x 3= 66) + Stationery of 8 pages.  Once facts are on record, it strengthens your case.  Also, file grievance in CM Secretariat immediately.
