The Right to Information Act, generally called as RTI, is a revolutionary Act, which was brought to bring clarity in government works, along with to bring a rigidity in the government departments, institutions and organizations. When it comes to RTI, there are watchdogs on multiple levels to ensure the Act is followed in letter and spirit.
The Act came into existence in 2005, after sustained efforts of anti-corruption activists. Even the CBI, IB aren't exempt under RTI Act on matters of corruption, human rights.
It was termed as revolutionary because due to this Act the government department can be put up for examination in case of their default in taking actions and in case the common people have any queries regarding the public works or in case of discrepancies in the works done by the government. This Act is a power to the common man with which one can demand any such information from the government department and the government is liable to furnish the information. In case they does not provide with the information, with 30 days then they will be charged with monetary fine as well as strict action is taken on them.
RTI Act has been formed by the legislation of Parliament of India on 15 June 2005. But the Act came into effect on 12 October 2005 and has been implemented ever since to provide information to the Indian citizens, across the country. It is one of the most powerful laws of the country as all the constitutional authorities comes under this Act and it is also simple to file.

Some ask for Court Fee Stamp, some ask for Indian postal order (IPO). When sending an RTI application by post, we can use IPO/ court fee stamp of Rs. 10.
No, those who are BPL, do not have to pay Rs 10 fee for filing RTI application.
If you've asked the government office to furnish copies of some records, you will need to pay Rs. 2 per page. Once the office receives your request and ascertains the amount you will need to pay towards making copies, you will get intimation via post. You can make the payment by sending postal order/court fee stamp/demand draft of the said amount.

Whether be it police, passport office, your electricity/water supply company or even the IRCTC, all are required to furnish RTI information, once asked for.
The central government has come up with RTI act which is applicable in all states except the state of Jammu and Kashmir, which has its own Act, very similar to Central act.
There are twenty-odd organisations that are exempted from RTI. Because all these entities are related to the country's defence and intelligence, such as RAW, BSF, CRPF, CISF, Intelligence Bureau, National Security Guard etc, when it comes to national security then no information can be sought of. However, RTI law says that any information which cannot be denied to a Member of Parliament or state legislature cannot be denied to any citizen.
Any citizen can seek government officials’ reasons for delay in government service as requested for. For example, if you have applied for passport and it has not been delivered. Then one can apply RTI with the following questions:
a. Please provide daily progress done on my passport application.
b. Please provide names of officers with whom my application has been lying during this period.
c. Please inform as per your citizen’s charter in how many days I should have got my passport.
