Rti

(Querist) 26 September 2012 This query is : Resolved 
Sir/Mam

Please clarify whether Co-operative societies (Karnataka) comes under the purview of RTI?

Can we ask information under RTI?

Thank You

to my knowledge the societies function on internal bye-laws and not governed by rules of karnataka state. the state acts are only example can or can not be followed.
Foe detailed function of departments that come under RTI are well explained in judgment on WRIT PETITION(CIVIL)212 OF 2012

The cooperative societies, not being public bodies, are not governed by to RTI Act. but under the provisions of the Act RTI application may be filed with the Registrar of Cooperative Societies to collect the information from the concerned Society and furnish. In Maharashtra this is the procedure that is being followed.
