+**One-line answer:** If your government scholarship is delayed/rejected, your exam grievance is unanswered, or your marksheet has an error — file an RTI to the disbursing/examining body's PIO. **Plain paper, ₹10, 30-day reply.**

+NSP · NMMS · INSPIRE · AICTE Pragati/Saksham · UGC fellowship · ICSSR · State scholarships (Maharashtra Mahadbt, TN Adi-Dravidar Welfare, Karnataka SSP, etc.)

+//RTI Wiki — citizen-first legal content. April 2026. **Forward to every parent / student / teacher you know.**//
+===== Why this matters for citizens =====
+Issues like this are common — every year lakhs of Indian citizens face the same hurdle. The core legal frameworks are the **Right to Information Act, 2005**, the **Information Technology Act, 2000** (for online matters), and the **Consumer Protection Act, 2019**. The enforcement bodies vary by issue but most start with a complaint to the relevant department PIO + a parallel CPGRAMS filing.
+===== Citizen action steps =====
+  - **Step 1** — file an RTI under §6 of the RTI Act 2005 to the relevant department PIO. Use [[https://righttoinformation.wiki/tools/ai-rti-draft-app.html|AI RTI Drafter]] for free.
+  - **Step 2** — parallel **CPGRAMS** complaint at pgportal.gov.in for service-delivery push.
+  - **Step 3** — if PIO refuses, **§19(1) First Appeal** in 30 days. Use [[https://righttoinformation.wiki/tools/first-appeal-app.html|First Appeal Builder]].
+  - **Step 4** — for fraud / criminal matters, **FIR at local police station** + **cybercrime portal** (cybercrime.gov.in) + **NCRP helpline 1930**.
+  - **Step 5** — for consumer issues, **Consumer Court** under Consumer Protection Act 2019 (e-filing at e-jagriti.gov.in).
