Sub. : Request for Ad . on occasion of the 71h National RTI Seminar.

Dear Sir,

In order to promote transparency and accountability, The Right to Info rmation Act "lj:J::; t"t~
become fully operational w.e.f. 12th Oct. 2005, enabling citizens of India to secure acct:..,S!
to information under the control of Public Authorities.

As envisaged in the preamble of the Act, 'Informed citizenry' and 'transparency of information' an
'vital for functioning of democracy' and 'to contain corruption & make public authorities accountab1e
If RTI Act is implemented in letter and spirit it cou ld bring a major administrative reform l ead 1 n~
quicker response to aspirations of the people.
It is also provided in the Act (Section : 26 ) that the appropriate Government & public authoritie
should organise educational programmes i.e. workshops etc. to advance the understanding c
the public as to how to exercise the rights contemplated under this Act.

However, the experience of last seven years shows that the 'practical regime of right to informatior

responsibilities supposed to be met at the execution and monitoring levels are strengthened.
