    As per the RTI Act, 2005, the time limit for providing

    information if it concerns the "life or liberty" of a person is:
    A 15 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 48 hours Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 30 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 10 days Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Section 7(1) of the RTI Act states that generally, information must be provided within 30 days. However, it contains a critical proviso: "Provided that where information sought concerns the life or liberty of a person, the same shall be provided within forty-eight hours of the receipt of the request." This recognizes the extreme urgency and potential life-threatening nature of such situations.
