Can I get the list of websites visited using the BSNL broadband internet connection by a Government College using RTI from BSNL(reason as for larger public interest since Government College uses taxpayers' money).

A.Hi,
ISP(internet service providers) does that in their bill. They will just share the data your spent on downloading and uploading and when you exceeded your limit etc. No details about your browsing history or any kind of personal browsing details will be shared by them.
The Information sought vide above reference cannot be disclosed vide clause 8(e) and 8(g) of the RTI act which states.
"8(e) - Information, available to a person in his fiduciary relationship, unless the competent authority is satisfied that the larger public interest warrants the disclosure of such information"
“8(g) - Information, the disclosure of which would endanger the life or physical safety of any person or identify the source of information or assistance given in confidence for law enforcement or security purposes"
This is issued with the approval of competent authority.
