    Moving this to the Drafted RTI Category

  2. kaykay0710 says:

    sorry sir, i don’t understand. i think this is already in drafted RTI category. Please reply

    • Anand - RTI Anonymous Team Member says:

      I agree this is a well drafted RTI.
      By default, every new request comes under the category of unprocessed. People like us review these requests and accordingly put them into different categories (Drafted/Unclear/Non -RTI request etc.)
      What i meant here was i am moving this to the Drafted RTI Category, so that our volunteers can now just take a printout of this and file the RTI.

        Hi KayKAy,
        You said, you had already filed this RTI but no reply.
        Can you please provide below detail:
        1. Did you sent RTI via SPEEDpost/regi?
        I yes, please provide Date and TrackId of speed post/Reg.

        Because if the PIO, to which you sent your RTI is correct then, need not file the same RTI to them again. this has to go to next level i.e. Appellate authority .
        Please provide the above details, so that further action can be taken.

        ANAND Ji: am i correct here ?

  3. kaykay0710 says:

    sir, kindly suggest me that further what i have to do in this connection.

    plzzz suggest me what should i do

  13. Sky Walker -- RTI Anonymous Team Member says:

    They have done the right thing..

    In any central govt. department the RTI application fee is onyl Rs 10/-

    It is not advisable to send extra fee in anticipation of getting some photocopies of document..

    Only after the decision of providing the requested information they will communicate the extra fee if any.

    Re-file the same RTI application with fee of rs 10.

  14. Sky Walker -- RTI Anonymous Team Member says:

  15. Sky Walker -- RTI Anonymous Team Member says:

    I have re-structured the RTI Application…

    pls give consideration to the points that i have modified. Instead of posing a question to PIO, we are now asking for copy of document..

    Please let me know your suggestions..

  16. kaykay0710 says:

    I can not understand the mentality of AICTE officials. What is the problem if We send two IPO of Rs 10/- each, if they don’t need one extra IPO than they can return one IPO in lieu of to return the application, it clearly indicate that they are not interested to supply the information.

  17. kaykay0710 says:

    now we have no another option that re-submitted the application alongwith one IPO of Rs 10/- duly addressed to account officer AICTE New delhi.

  18. laddu says:

    OK after 1 & 2 days i will again post this with the rs.-10 IPO

  19. kaykay0710 says:

    while re-submitting this RTI pls remember to write the address of account officer AICTE on IPO.Otherwise they have one more reason to return the RTI again un-actioned.

  20. Sky Walker -- RTI Anonymous Team Member says:

    AO, AICTE, New Delhi..

    This will do..

    Or just leave it blank..

    AS them to fill

  21. laddu says:

    मै अभी अपने घर पर हू और यहाँ पर पोस्ट ऑफिस में पोस्टल आर्डर नही मिल रहा है इसलिए मुझे कुछ वक्त लगेगा उसे दोबारा भेजने में,

  22. kaykay0710 says:

    mr laddu…….hw r u….i think u forget to resubmitted the rti…………..if u will not do so our all efforts become waste. So pls try to resubmitted the rti again

  23. laddu says:

    i remember this, under 2 days i will filed this application.

  24. laddu says:

    क्या मुझे वो वाली आरटीआई पोस्ट करनी है जो sky walker जी redraft कि है??

  25. laddu says:


    सर इससे पहले मैंने इस प्रकार से IPO में लिखा था अब इस IPO का क्या उपयोग है?? और मेरे पास इससे पहले भेजी हुई application भी उपलब्ध है, कृपया जल्दी प्रत्त्युत्तर भेजे.

  26. kaykay0710 says:

    १. आपने ipo मै पता गलत लिखा है……..मेरे विचार से इसका पता AO AICTE NEW DELHI होना चाहिय !मेरे विचार से इस ipo का अब कोई उपयोग नहीं रह गया है.
    २. यदि आप इस rti को redraft कर सकते हों (जैसे की स्क्य वालकर जी नै रेद्राफ्ट की है ) तो बेहतर रहेगा

  27. laddu says:

    kaykay0710 जी मुझे rti redraft करना ठीक से नही आता, अगर मेरी कोई सहायता कर सके तो बेहतर है,

  28. laddu says:

    या फिर मै sky walker जी कि redrafted rti को भेज दू?

  29. kaykay0710 says:

    Sir kindly find the attached file.I have redrafted this rti as drafted by sky walker..

  30. kaykay0710 says:

    Dear laddu,
    Original requester may or may not be interested in the information, but I am sure there are many other Students of ICE, that need this information(Including me). I had seen similar reply from AICTE regarding ICE, that requested information is not available with them. But they do not advice from where to get it or who will have this information? And despite of all efforts it is not sure if the ICE has required Affiliations or not. Can you please advice how to take it further and get the pin pointed information?
