Filed RTI seeking name of officer who approved a particular government contract. PIO refused saying it's 'third-party personal information u/s 8(1)(j)'. The contract involves ₹2.3 crore of public money. How do I challenge in First Appeal?
Know the practical answer?
Share the record to ask for, the authority to approach, or the next appeal step.
