2000 govt organisations to accept online RTI applications

NEW DELHI.Around 2,000 Central government organisations will soon be accepting applications under the Right to Information (RTI) Act through online medium.
 
The Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) has started a massive exercise to train nodal officers of all such public authorities who have not yet started accepting the RTI pleas online. In a stern directive, it has asked all the government departments to attend a workshop being organised by the DoPT in this regard “without fail”.
 
In case, the officers concerned fail to attend the workshop, a username will be created suo-motu and all these public authorities will be made live on the RTI portal. As many as 690 public authorities have been aligned so far on the especially designed website--www.rtionline.gov.in-- to enable online filing of the RTI applications.
