Right to Information Act

There are my personal views and i don't expect any expert comments about them!

The day when RTI act was passed i was pleasantly surprised. Reason is very simple "How can any sane politician give up its privilege to do anything and get away with it?". "How can any babu (government employee) give up its privilege to no to do anything and get away with it?"
RTI act, if at all used and allowed to be used, does the same. It will make politicians accountable for their deeds by being asked about virtually everything relevant and they have to do that. Just imagine that you can ask any babu, why your file didn't move? or why your task took too much time? Or simply imagine a politician giving information about a government contract being given in past.

I imagined all this and felt happy that finally we may be approaching true democracy. But alas..!!!

My happiness was short lived and my apprehensions were correct. No sane politician can allow this to happen. No sane babu will allow this happen. Finally they will do the same with RTI act what they did to "Office of Profit" bill. Mutilate it to suit their own requirements and still be under the garb of being alleging to the law.

Recent actions of this government has further strengthened my opinion that we are living in a pseudo-democracy, where u don't have any access to virtually anything.

Let this time government not do what it intends to !
Let for once be together and fight for a just cause !
Lets do something about it....We wont let our right been taken away by a few white clad humans..!!

Let the truth prevail.....
