Delhi Police §24-exempt organisation; only corruption / human-rights records accessible via §24 proviso.
Delhi Police is a §24 exempt organisation (notified under the Second Schedule). RTI applications are generally not maintainable. Only information relating to allegations of corruption or human rights violations survives the exemption via the §24 proviso — and is disclosable only with CIC / Central Government approval.
