30 helplines + grievance escalation routes you actually need: CIC, all State Information Commissions, scheme-specific lines (UIDAI, EPFO, passport, IT, consumer, etc.). Each entry shows when to call vs when to file an RTI.
Each helpline page above ends with an RTI escalation template — most stuck complaints clear within 15 days of an RTI being filed.
