 +====== Pillar 1 — RTI for Daily Life Problems ======
 +
 +{{ :social:auto:pillar-daily-life.png?direct&1200 |Pillar — RTI for daily life problems — RTI Wiki}}
 +
 +<WRAP info>
 +**In one line.** Every Indian, at some point, runs into a stuck file — Aadhaar not generated, passport delayed, voter ID missing, pension halted, licence pending. This pillar brings together every RTI guide for those day-to-day walls, each with a copy-ready application and a 30-day escalation path.
 +
 +**What you'll find.**
 +  * Identity documents — Aadhaar, passport, voter ID, driving licence.
 +  * Money flows — EPFO, pension, scheme benefits, refund.
 +  * Records — land, property, complaint, grievance.
 +</WRAP>
 +
 +<div didyouknow>
 +**Did you know?** In 2025, the Central Public Information Officers across India received more than **3.1 lakh RTIs per month** on personal files — passport, Aadhaar, licence, PF, pension. More than half were resolved substantively during the RTI window itself. The Act's own process is often the solution.
