Moreover Mr. Kejriwal said that if the concerned department puts daily
sales reports of the ration shops online, people won't have to file RTIs to
seek information and the e-RTI portal also enables citizens to make fee of RTI
application through Net banking. An applicant would also be able to track the
status of the RTI application.
