Govt to test officers' RTI knowledge

Published on: 

With a view to encourage its officers and staff, including Group D employees, to get acquainted with the provisions of the Right to Information Act (2005), the Delhi Government has decided to hold a comprehensive test on the matter in November in the national Capital. All the officers working with the Delhi Government, its sub-ordinate offices or undertakings and local bodies can participate in the test.

The test will be confined to the provisions of the RTI Act and will contain 100 objective or subjective questions. The test will be of one-and-a-half hour duration. There will be separate papers for each category — one for lDC and Group D and their equivalent, second for UDCs, Assistants and their equivalent and the third for superintendents and their equivalent and above.

Each incumbent who secures 50 per cent and above marks will be given a certificate and cash award on the basis of his or her performance in the test.
