The Right to Information (Regulation of Fee &
Cost) Rules, 2005 provides that a request for obtaining information
should be accompanied by an application fee of rupes ten by way of cash
against proper receipt or by demand draft or bankers cheque or Indian
Postal Order payable to the Accounts Officer of the public authority.
In order to facilitate filing of RTI applications in Central Government public authorities by Indians living abroad, the Central Government has ‘in-principle’ agreed to start sale of Indian Postal Orders through internet on payment in foreign currency.
This was stated by Shri V. Narayanasamy, Minister of State of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pension and Prime Minister Office in written reply to a question in the Lok Sabha today.
