Re: [HumJanenge] UNITY and Unification in RTI movement

Dear all,

Its good to see you all giving your reactions on implementation of RTI. As a convener of a active Civil society organisation Social audit council on information Right (SACIR)  from Hyderabad, A.P at the national level I would be happy to share my view .After conducting independent RTI implementation review meetings for the past five years  with several organisations from the village level up to the city level and with all stake holders of RTI act, particularly by organizing two mass awareness campaigns at the state level in all districts of A.P, I feel every activist should concentrate on up dating the records under section 41(b) of RTI act in every public authority. 

                           Section 41b is the heart of the RTI act2005 which will up date the information with insides of every public authority and readily kept open to all.If it is achieved, the reason for our agony being non accountability and corruption in governance at different levels can be addressed. Let us prepare our selves to strengthen the systems so as to get good governance.Let us start at some point to make success stories by filing applications questioning whether public authorities are maintaining the 17 manual columns under  the section 41b.With out putting first step we can not travel a long way to achieve our goals.So let us all start the campaign from individual level by filing applications asking about section 41b.

                            AP information commission have successfully produced four annual reports so far which is possible with the efforts from civil society activists working for the last five years constantly.Unless you ask nothing is available.
