| | ====== India's 36 state RTI portals — directory, status, fees (2026) ====== |
| | |
| | {{page>snippets:dpdp-banner}} |
| | |
| | <WRAP info>**The lead.** This pillar is the canonical 2026 directory of every state and UT RTI portal — which work, which don't, what they cost, what language they support, and what to do when they fail.</WRAP> |
| | |
| | ===== Quick state-status table ===== |
| | **Best portals (full features, FAA flow, mobile-OK)**: |
| | [[:state-scheme:maharashtra:start|Maharashtra]] · [[:state-scheme:karnataka:start|Karnataka]] · [[:state-scheme:kerala:start|Kerala]] · [[:state-scheme:delhi:start|Delhi]] · [[:state-scheme:tamil-nadu:start|Tamil Nadu]] · [[:state-scheme:gujarat:start|Gujarat]] · [[:state-scheme:madhya-pradesh:start|MP]] |
| | |
| | **Basic but working**: |
| | [[:state-scheme:uttar-pradesh:start|UP]] · [[:state-scheme:bihar:start|Bihar]] · [[:state-scheme:punjab:start|Punjab]] · [[:state-scheme:haryana:start|Haryana]] · [[:state-scheme:west-bengal:start|WB]] · [[:state-scheme:odisha:start|Odisha]] · [[:state-scheme:assam:start|Assam]] · [[:state-scheme:chhattisgarh:start|Chhattisgarh]] · [[:state-scheme:jharkhand:start|Jharkhand]] · [[:state-scheme:uttarakhand:start|Uttarakhand]] · [[:state-scheme:himachal-pradesh:start|HP]] · [[:state-scheme:tripura:start|Tripura]] · [[:state-scheme:rajasthan:start|Rajasthan]] · [[:state-scheme:telangana:start|Telangana]] · [[:state-scheme:andhra-pradesh:start|AP]] |
| | |
| | **Postal-only (no working state portal)**: |
| | [[:state-scheme:goa:start|Goa]] · [[:state-scheme:manipur:start|Manipur]] · [[:state-scheme:meghalaya:start|Meghalaya]] · [[:state-scheme:mizoram:start|Mizoram]] · [[:state-scheme:nagaland:start|Nagaland]] · [[:state-scheme:sikkim:start|Sikkim]] · [[:state-scheme:puducherry:start|Puducherry]] · [[:state-scheme:chandigarh:start|Chandigarh*]] · [[:state-scheme:andaman-nicobar:start|A&N]] · [[:state-scheme:dadra-nh-daman-diu:start|DNH&DD]] · [[:state-scheme:lakshadweep:start|Lakshadweep]] · [[:state-scheme:ladakh:start|Ladakh]] · [[:state-scheme:arunachal-pradesh:start|Arunachal]] · [[:state-scheme:jammu-and-kashmir:start|J&K]] |

| | ===== State fee variations ===== |
| | * **₹10** — most states (default per central rule) |
| | * **₹50** — Haryana (highest in India) |
| | * **₹20** — Gujarat |
| | * **₹10 court fee stamp** — West Bengal (NOT IPO) |
| | * **Free** — BPL cardholders everywhere (§7(5) attach card copy) |
| | * **Free** — when PIO misses 30-day deadline (§7(6)) |

| | |
| | ===== State Information Commissions (Second Appeal) ===== |
| | | State | Pending appeals | Avg disposal time | Best/worst | |
| | | Bihar | Paralysed | Indefinite | **Worst**: 0 commissioners (2026) | |
| | | UP | 45,000+ | 24-36 mo | **Largest backlog** | |
| | | Maharashtra | 28,000 | 18-30 mo | | |
| | | Karnataka | 22,000 | 18-30 mo | | |
| | | Kerala | 6,000 | 9-15 mo | **Best**: lowest backlog | |
| | | Tamil Nadu | 8,000 | 12-18 mo | | |
| | | Delhi | 11,500 | 18-24 mo | | |
| | | CIC (Centre) | 38,000 | 18-24 mo | | |
| | |
| | ===== When the portal fails ===== |
| | - Take a screenshot of the failure (payment timeout, page error) |
| | - Switch to **Speed Post** filing (₹10 IPO + ₹22 postage = ₹32 total) |
| | - Speed Post receipt is gold-standard evidence of filing date |
| | - File First Appeal also by Speed Post (do not rely on portal escalation) |
