 +===== Why this case-cluster matters for citizens =====
 +
 +This ruling sits in the **PMAY application / sanction / disbursal delay** topic cluster — orders from various courts and Information Commissions over 2012-2025 dealing with **Citizens stuck in PMAY-G or PMAY-U application / SECC verification / instalment delay**. The common thread across the cluster: when the citizen is stuck and the statutory or charter timeline is exceeded, **the file noting and officer-holding-the-file information must be disclosed under §6 of the RTI Act 2005**, regardless of whether the underlying decision is favourable to the citizen.
 +
 +===== Right authority to RTI for this topic =====
 +
 +**PMAY-G: District Rural Development Agency (DRDA) at District Magistrate's office. PMAY-U: Urban Local Body (Municipal Corporation / Council)** is the typical PIO target for an RTI on this topic. The applicable statute is **PMAY Guidelines 2024 + state operational manuals + Section 4 of RTI Act (mandatory proactive disclosure of beneficiary lists)**. The citizen charter / SLA is: PMAY-G: 90 days from sanction to first instalment. PMAY-U: 60 days from beneficiary verification.
 +
 +===== Common issues in this cluster =====
 +
 +Name not in SECC list; AwaasSoft showing 'rejected' without reason; instalment-2 stuck pending geo-tagging; banker raising fresh KYC.
 +
 +===== Sample RTI for this topic =====
 +
 +If your own case is stuck on a similar issue, file an RTI to the right PIO with these queries:
 +
 +  * Current status of your **PMAY application status** application / claim, with the date of last action.
 +  * Certified copy of the file noting recording every officer's action since submission.
 +  * Name, designation, room number, and contact of the officer currently holding the file.
 +  * The prescribed Citizen Charter / statutory timeline for disposal.
 +  * Records relating to: AwaasSoft beneficiary file, SECC verification report, geo-tagging confirmation, fund-release status, DRDA noting.
 +  * Name and contact of the First Appellate Authority for this office.
