The Right to Information Act, 2005

The Right to Information Act, 2005 (‘RTI Act’) allows Indian citizens to obtain information held by any public authority, subject to specified exceptions for national interest, legislative privilege and right to privacy.  Further, the RTI Act requires public authorities to publicly disclose certain types of information relating to their functions (for example, they must publish relevant facts while formulating important policies or announcing decisions that affect the public and provide reasons for their decisions).  The information requested by a citizen is required to be provided in a timely manner (within a period ranging from 48 hours (if the life and liberty of any person are involved) to 30 days).  An authority has been set up at the central and state levels to monitor complaints from citizens under the RTI Act (including a refusal of access or a failure to respond).

In recent years, the RTI Act has proved to be a key tool in the fight against corruption – requests for information by activists and citizens have been successful in bringing to light instances of corruption in government tenders and public procurement programmes.  The RTI Act promotes transparency in the government and bureaucracy’s decision-making, and by facilitating publication of official records, which ensures that any lapses are brought into the public eye.

The Week In Corruption, 7 June 2019- From Transparency International Hi, A medieval Czech legend has it that King Wenceslas will return from the dead with a group of knights to save the Czech people in their darkest hour. Luckily, that wasn’t necessary this week: instead, citizens took it upon themselves to stand up for change when more than  120 thousand of them gathered  on the square named after King Wenceslas in Prague calling for Prime Minister Andrej Babiš to resign. The protests came after the European Commission (EC)  confirmed  Babiš’s significant conflicts of interest regarding his private businesses, following the  complaint  from our chapter, TI Czech Republic (TI-CZ). Already last year, TI-CZ revealed that one of Babiš’s many companies, Agrofert, had received millions in EU agricultural subsidies. In 2017, Babiš had put the company into two trust funds but remained the ultimate beneficiary of these funds, hiding behind an additional ...
