D.O. No. 1/Misc. Matters/2016/IR (Pt-II)

1st February, 2017

Dear Nodal Officer,
Please refer to this DoPT’s earlier reference of even no. dated $9^{\text {th }}$ December, 2016 regarding RTI online alignment of Public Authorities (PAs). It has been noted that the nominated Nodal Officers of 137 PAs under various Ministries/Departments have not turned up for the training/workshop organized by this department specifically for their alignment, in the month of January, 2017, which has unduly delayed the process of alignment of these PAs with the DoPT’s RTI Online Portal.
2. It is informed that as on 31.01.2017, 1600 PAs have already been aligned with RTI Online Portal. Since all the Central PAs (around 2000) will have to be aligned in a time bound manner(a target/timeline fixed and monitored at the highest level), DoPT is organizing yet one more training/workshop especially for accommodating those absentee PAs/Nodal Officers who did not attend the workshop conducted for them in January, 2017.
3. It is, therefore, requested that all the Nodal Officers under 137 PAs (for 67 PAs on 16.2.2017 \& for 70 PAs on 17.2.2017) to attend the workshop being organized by DoPT at CSOI, Vinay Marg, New Delhi from 11.00 AM to 2.00 PM on 16.2.2017 \& 17.2.2017 as per attached programme, without fail (Annexure-I / II ).
4. The invited Nodal Officers (who is the focal point of the concerned Public Authorities and who receives RTI applications/appeals and further distributes these to the concerned CPIOs/FAAs in the Organization) may further note that they have to share mandatorily their details (i.e. name, Designation, e-mail ID \& Phone No.) for creation of user name and password by the Project Management Unit (PMU) members of the day of the training. After training of Nodal officer, the concerned PAs will be aligned after a week with the RTI online Portal. The PMU team is headed by:

Shri Piyush Kanal, Sr. Management Associate, Email ID: rtipmu-dopt@nic.in Phone No. 011-24268977/78/79 Mobile: 9953600121
Address: Room No. 384, $3^{\text {rd }}$ floor, Loknayak Bhavan, Khan Market, New Delhi-110003.

Contd….

1. It may be noted by all concerned that the failure to attend training and non-alignment with DoPT’s web portal by these PAs are being taken note of by the competent authority and their repeated absence will be viewed seriously, as this delays the schedule and progress of alignment.
2. After the training on $16^{\text {th }} \& 17^{\text {th }}$ February, 2017 the username and password will be created and the concerned PAs will be made live on the RTI Online Portal w.e.f. 23.2.2017 by DoPT.
