type of information can be asked from employer through R T I

Dear All,

Can anyone help to confirm the type of information that can be asked from employers and what type of information/documents cannot be asked?

With regards, Rajbir Singh 8527653085

As per the RTI Act of 2005, all information, except those covered under Section 8, can be sought and must be answered by the public authority. It would be beneficial to educate yourself based on the numerous online resources available.

Thank you.

Dear Rajbir,

In addition to the above observation of our learned friend KK(!)HR, I would like to request you to go through the definition of the term "Public Authority" as defined under Section 2(h) of the RTI Act, 2005. Therefore, you cannot exercise your right to information under the Act unless your employer or the particular employer happens to be a "Public Authority."
