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.
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.
