Why are the Public offices not taking initiative to disclose the information?

Comment: In RTI, it has been clearly mentioned, that the Public offices should take initiative to computerize the information as per section 4 (1) (a). The act was enacted on 22 The provisions of this Act shall have effect notwithstanding anything inconsistent therewith contained in the Official Secrets Act, 1923 (19 of 1923), and any other law for the time being in force or in any instrument having effect by virtue of any law other than this Act. Nov 2005. 8 Years are already completed.
However, if the Public offices are not taking initiative to disclose the information on computer &/or internet, which is indication of non- transparency, and non-transparency is not expected in as per RTI. Thus, Public offices should be transparent and disclose the information on internet to avoid repeated applications!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
