How can the difference involved in requesting for information via e-mail and via courier be overcome?

0

The former won’t involve courier charges or application fee charges. A: The government needs to formulate in the rules that the fees charged for requesting information in written format and via e-mail should be the same. The government should issue guidelines for online payment for information. These guidelines should be formulated at the earliest during rule making itself. At the same time, fees that are collected for providing information should be placed under a separate budget head so as to monitor the funds that are flowing in and whether and how they are being spent. Q: How will the public conduct inspection of documents? A: The Act does not provide any specific procedure for the public authorities or for the public to follow when the latter inspects hard copies of documents in the government office. To take the case study of Delhi, citizens are allowed to inspect documents of the ration shops in a particular area in the Food and Civil Supplies office of that area every Saturday
