Under the RTI Act, certain intelligence and security organisations are exempted under which section, subject to allegations of corruption and human rights violations?

Under Section 24 of the Right to Information Act, the Act does not apply to certain intelligence and security organisations specified in the Second Schedule, such as the Intelligence Bureau and others, and their state counterparts as notified. However, this exemption does not apply to information pertaining to allegations of corruption and human rights violations. The exemption balances the citizen's right to information with the need to protect sensitive intelligence and security operations of the state.
