Right to Information (RTI) requests can now be submitted online to the Department of Personal and Training (DoPT), after the National Informatics Centre built web portal rtionline.gov.in to submit RTI Act 2005 queries.

Payment can be made through the State Bank of India or associated banks’ internet banking accounts or debit cards. [RTI Online/FAQ]
