Election Commission Appeal
I filed an RTI with the election commission asking for the details of the electoral rolls in my constituency. However, the PIO refused to provide the information citing §8(1)(j) of the RTI Act. I want to file an appeal with the election commission. Can someone guide me on how to do this?
Know the practical answer?
Share the record to ask for, the authority to approach, or the next appeal step.
