Question
Under the RTI Act, if the public authority fails to provide
information within the prescribed time, the information must be provided how?Solution
Under Section 7 of the Right to Information Act, where a public authority fails to comply with the prescribed time limits for providing information, the information must be provided free of charge to the applicant. This provision penalises delay by depriving the authority of the fee it would otherwise charge for supplying the information. It serves as an incentive for public authorities to respond within the stipulated time and as a measure of relief to applicants facing delays.
