dear sir,
i given a complaint to bci related to the irregularities and violating the norms of bci by some law colleges.in this context i gathered some documantary proof under rti-2005.The bci assured me for full cooperation and suggested me to send all the valuable documentary proof i am having.Despite of sending all the essential documents the bci was not initiating any action against such fraud colleges and now i am expecting that the Bci seems to be managed by these colleges and despite of continous reminder the Bci was not responding to me.just i want to know whether the bar council of india comes under the perview of Right To Information Act or not.

Bar Council is not a govt orgn., it does not come under RTI Act.

Definitely it does not come within the perview of RTI Act but civil suit can be filed against it or writ can be filed in your matter.

Dear Sivnusu,
bar council of India is a statutory body constituted under the law (Advocate's Act) made by the Parliament thus under section 2 (h) (b), the same shall come within the meaning and purview of the public authority.
you can ask info from the BCI under RTI Act
