LUCKNOW: An RTI applicant was asked to confirm his address by the Indian Institute of Management (Lucknow) when he filed an application seeking information under the Right to Information Act regarding establishment of IIM-L and its Noida campus.

"In the recent past, we have received a number of queries from fake address/persons. In view of the above, we request you to please confirm your coorespondence address so as to enable us to prepare and send the reply to your query", said assistant central public information officer, IIM-Lucknow.

"On the pretext of fake RTIs, IIM Lucknow is violating section 6(2) of RTI Act by introducing a precondition of confirmation of address by info-seekers," said applicant Sanjay Sharma.

This unnecessarily causes delay in providing information, said Sharma.
