 +
 +===== When to call =====
 +==== When to use CPGRAMS over RTI ====
 +CPGRAMS for "fix my problem". RTI for "give me information". Different tools.
 +
 +==== Statutory disposal timeline ====
 +21 days (most ministries). 30 days for complex.
 +
 +==== Escalation if unsatisfied ====
 +Re-open ticket within 30 days. Cite reasons.
 +
 +==== CPGRAMS vs RTI together ====
 +You can file BOTH in parallel — they don't exclude each other.
 +
 +===== If the helpline does not resolve — file an RTI =====
 +
 +Helplines often log a complaint without solving it. RTI gives you the file noting + officer name + actual reasoning, and most stuck cases clear within 7-15 days.
 +
 +<code>
 +1. Status of my complaint / application no. _____ dated _____ as on date.
 +2. Name + designation of the officer assigned to my file.
 +3. Reasons for delay beyond the statutory timeline.
 +4. Copy of any noting / movement of my file in the past 30 days.
 +5. Likely date of resolution.
 +</code>
