Comment: DRDO has been exempted as per Section 24 of RTI Act 2005. Enormous Public Money is being spent by this Organisation in the name of Defence R&D but not even 90% of the expenditure is useful to Armed Forces. Some of the CAG reports alleges cost and Time overrun by the Organisation. This leads to a great suspicion that the Organisation is deemed to be corrupt without proper utilization of Public Money and Resources. In order to bring in complete Transparency in spending the public money DRDO should not be exempted from RTI Act, 2005. Any RTI query on sensitive and Security related can be answered accordingly.
