1. Station house diary is the day to day register of complaints/information /VHF received
2. Police diary which is kept by the investigtion officer.
3. General diary is the what are information recevied with respect to all the cases what has done, history of case etc.
4. Daily diary is a continuation of case diary
5. Case diary is the total compendium information relates to the criminal case which includes the FIR, charge sheet,witnesses statement, the corbon copies of all the statements, certificates, and the day to day activities and orders and develoments case till judgement, until conlcusion of appeal.
in which an accused cannot claim it through RTI. It upto your advocate at the time of trail may send for any material contradiction in the investigation and witnesses

Ganesan, has nicely explained Police diary. But I am also of the view that Yogesh, is right with regard to RTI for the information to be sought for Police diary. Before refusing such request the Police must satisfied the applicant that such disclosure would hamper the investigations machinery, if not it has to supply the Police diary; and of course the statements of the witnesses contains in the poice diary has to be given to the accused as per CrPC.

Nice explanation by Mr.Ganesan.
The police will not give the proper reply under RTI while the case is pending.
