Answer:

No, the APIO is not an assistant to the PIO. An APIO may be appointed at the sub-district or sub-divisional level where a public authority may not have an office or administrative unit designated a PIO. He is expected to receive applications and appeals and forward the same to the PIO concerned.


Question:

Is the PIO or APIO under obligation to receive applications addressed to the PIO of other PAs and their transfer the application to the other PA?

Answer:

No. The PIO is required to accept applications made to him/her only. The APIO is required to accept applications addressed to the PIOs of PA for which he/she is designated as APIO.
