The government on Wednesday said that it has not proposed any significant changes to the Right to Information (RTI) rules.
“The key provisions of the RTI Rules, 2012 have been identically incorporated verbatim. No change has been made in the RTI fee structure,” said the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances and Pensions in a statement.
It further said even the existing RTI Rules 2012 have stated that an application shall ordinarily not contain more than 500 words excluding annexure. The charges for photocopying and posting have also not been changed under the proposed rules. Similarly, it does not limit the filing of either complaint or appeal “online” only.
