An year comes to an end
26 Dec, 2012An year comes to an end and with it comes the time to take a stock of what has been achieved and what remains to be achieved. In case of RTI, it would be prudent for the activists to ask themselves whether they are satisfied with the course of action the RTI movement is taking. The right to information remains a mirage with occasional success.... it is yet to get the wings to fly. While government remains the favorite target to hit for anything that goes wrong, the RTI activists need to look into their own backyards. Without their efforts, the RTI Act cannot reach the platform it was intended to achieve. Would the new year bring better news or would it be a mere repetition of earlier years? Surbhi Srivastava
