Who is the official signing authority of RTI Application in respect of replies?
Whether any other official like APIO or FAA will sign the RTI reply if the PIO is present on duty at that office?
Name: Prakash Dhoke
Email id: prakashdhoke56@gmail.com
Ordinarily, it is the PIO who is expected to sign the reply. The FAA cannot sign the reply to the RTI Application as it would make a mockery of the appeal process.
