We all fully support the RTI act in the present form if we need to change make it more transparent and strong.
Keep up the good work.

National PPP Policy 2011 - Draft for Consultation
PPP Projects Viz RTI Act 2005
During RTI Convention 2010, it was opined that 'Public Private Partnerships' (PPP) projects ought to be under RTI Act 2005.
In this context on 04 January 2011, Shri Satyananda Mishra the Hon'ble CIC had written a letter to Shri Montek Singh Ahluwalia, Deputy Chairman of the Planning Commission.
The said CIC letter was responded by Shri Montek Singh Ahluwalia on 14 March 2011.
Both these letters can be read on CIC website on following links
http://cic.gov.in/IMP-Letters/Letter-To-DyChairman-on-PPP.pdf
http://cic.gov.in/IMP-Letters/Reply-From-DC-14032011.pdf
Media had given adequate coverage to above letters.
Draft of National PPP Policy 2011 Promulgated by Ministry of Finance
On 27 September 2011, the Ministry of Finance has promulgated "Draft of PPP Policy 2011" and solicited views / suggestions from all stakeholders by 15 October, 2011. The Min Of Finance circular can be perused on Link below:
http://pppinindia.com/draftpolicy.php
The National draft PPP Policy 2011 can also be downloaded (PDF) from Link :
http://pppinindia.com/pdf/draftnationalppppolicy.pdf
My Take :
Since huge amount of 'Public Assets' are used by the Centre and State Governments for contracting PPP Projects... It is but natural that People act as Watchdogs to ensure accountability in the expenditure of PPP projects V/s benefits accrued to society at large.
Therefore while signing contracts the Centre & State Governments must ensure that the PROJECT comes within the perview of RTI Act 2005.
Now its Our Call:
PLEASE SEND YOUR VIEWS/SUGGESTIONS BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.
Best
