‘It impinges on constitutional rights and contravenes RTI Act’
The State government’s decision to not upload any Government Orders (G.O.s) in the public domain came in for sharp condemnation from civil activists, who said the move was against the tenets of democracy and transparency. Stating that the government’s decision went against the fundamental rights of citizens and was in contravention to the Right to Information (RTI) Act, 2005, the activists said they have planned to approach the court in this regard. RTI activists are learnt to be planning to impress upon the State government the need to be transparent and accountable to the people.More Related News
