A new procedure is being implemented for the transfer of ‘RTI Fees’ and ‘Additional Payments’ received through the RTI online portal. Previously, these funds were deposited into a consolidated government account. However, due to requests from various Public Authorities (PAs), it has been decided that these amounts will now be credited directly to the respective PA’s bank account. Nodal Officers of attached/subordinate offices, autonomous bodies, and Public Sector Undertakings (PSUs) are required to update their organization’s bank details on the RTI online portal. The necessary details include the Name of Bank, Branch Name, IFS Code, and Account Number. For any queries, contact the Project Monitoring Unit (PMU).
