Jankari is the first effort of its kind in the country where technology has been used to bring RTI to the masses.&nbsp; Under this scheme a dedicated Call center has been established wherein a citizen can seek information. The fees of Rs 10 which earlier needs to be submitted in the form of Postal Order would be deducted from the call itself. It works on the premium rate services of the BSNL - premium rate call number 155311 for RTI applications and 155310 as help line number on normal tariff have been allotted by the Department of Communication, Government of India. Jankari is an additional mode for seeking information under RTI apart from the conventional way of giving applications to the office concerned.</p> <p class="txt7"><br /> </p> <p class="txt7"><img width="251" height="217" src="images/tender_clip_image002_0017.jpg" align="left" hspace="12" />Ever since its introduction Jankari has received 22,600 calls.
