When a physical application is sent to CPIO no proof of identity is sent , just address for contacting purpose , which is needed for dissemination of information . As per Section 6(2), RTI Act , 2005 - an applicant making request for information shall not be required to give any other personal information except those that may be necessary for contacting him. I hope this helps.
