How to file an RTI for birth certificate in Agra

The general guide on RTI for birth certificate covers the full template, decision steps, case law and FAQs. This page focuses on the Agra-specific bits: which municipal department to file at, what fee mode Agra Nagar Nigam (ANN) accepts, the local portal (if any), and where to escalate within Uttar Pradesh.

1. Identify the office. Agra Nagar Nigam (ANN) (Municipal Registrar of Births & Deaths) typically sits at Agra Nagar Nigam (ANN) headquarters or the relevant zonal office.
2. Pay the fee: Rs. 10 IPO/cash; check the Uttar Pradesh hub for any state-specific fee.

2. Day 75-76: file Second Appeal to the Uttar Pradesh State Information Commission.
3. Parallel pressure: Use the Agra Nagar Nigam (ANN) grievance portal (if available) and CPGRAMS (pgportal.gov.in).
