Solution
✅ Correct Option: 3
The RTI Act 2005 was enacted on 15 June 2005 and came into force on 12 October 2005 - Statement I is true. However, RTI is not listed as a fundamental right in Part III of the Constitution; it is a statutory right, though implicit in Article 19(1)(a). So Statement II is false.
