I request Mr. Roy to disclose his hidden agenda.  It seems to me to hit all other leading RTI activists like (all Shri ) Subhash Chander Agarwaq, Arvind Kejriwal, Aruna Rao, Shekhar Singh and all other those who matter.  He even does not spare former CCIC, Mr. Wajahat Habibullah and present Hon IC Shri Shailesh Gandhi. It seems that there should be only one active and leading activist and all other shld be cut to sizes so that he can claim that he is taller than others.
I apologe for such terse comments and was not able to contro myself in the face of arogance of our one of our colleagues. .
