The portal can be used only by Indian citizens to file RTI applications, first appeals and to make payment for fees, copying charges, etc.
The applicant can pay the prescribed fee through internet banking, credit/debit card of Master/Visa or UPI.
The fee per RTI application is ₹10.
Until the launch of the portal, RTI applications in relation to the Supreme Court had to be filed physically.
Various public interest litigation (PILs) had been filed before the Supreme Court seeking an online RTI portal for the Court.
