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

1. Identify the office. Prayagraj Municipal Corporation (Municipal Registrar of Births & Deaths) typically sits at Prayagraj Municipal Corporation headquarters or the relevant zonal office.
2. Pay the fee: Rs. 10 IPO/cash; check the Uttar Pradesh hub for any state-specific fee.
3. File: online via https://prayagrajnagarnigam.in/ OR by Speed Post to Prayagraj Municipal Corporation (with acknowledgment).
4. Track: 30-day clock starts from receipt by the public authority.

1. Day 31: file First Appeal under §19(1) to the FAA (typically the Municipal Commissioner of Prayagraj Municipal Corporation).
2. Day 75-76: file Second Appeal to the Uttar Pradesh State Information Commission.
3. Parallel pressure: Use the Prayagraj Municipal Corporation grievance portal (if available) and CPGRAMS (pgportal.gov.in).
