Outcome

A beneficiary can access their own PM-JAY treatment authorisation file within 30 days.

Ratio decidendi

The National Health Authority cannot invoke §8(1)(j) to deny a PM-JAY beneficiary their own treatment authorisation, hospital claim and referral history. Personal-information exemption protects OTHERS' information; the beneficiary's own file is §2(f) self-accessible. Thirty-day §7(1) compliance is mandatory.
