Dear Members:

Some of my messages are not getting posted in time. Today is the last day of this discussion on "What does RTI mean for the patients?" You are requested to come up with case reports of patients having utilized provisions of RTI Act in India before we end this discussion today evening.

With Regards

Dear Dr Anupama:

Yes it can be done provided one has sufficient time which sadly I don't have at

present. It must be already available somewhere on the web,I guess, you need to

do a thorough search.

A PDF file is available on the official website of J & K State Information

Commission that gives key features of the RTI Act in table form. You can take

print outs of each table and fix them on a poster and then display it wherever

you want. Please vist " RTI in table form " section on the website:

http://jksic.nic.in

However it may be noted that J & K has its own RTI Act of 2009 and some of the

provisions shown in these tables are different from central RTI Act of 2005. For

example, here the application fee is Rs. 50 as against Rs. 10 at centre and

photocopying fee is Rs 10 per page (which is quite hefty and unreasonable) as

against Rs. 1 at centre.

With Regards

Dr Geer M Ishaq
