consumer redressal forum can not fine PIO under RTI Act.
It can be done by SIC/ CIC alone.

True, but the consumer redressal forum can award compensation for deficiency of service since the applicant under RTI Act is deemed to be a consumer and non supply of information is treated as deficiency of service. there are many judgements in this regard. find the sample one attached herewith.
