[rti4empowerment] Mini Research papers on “RTI- Success or Failure in India” Invited

 

Mini Research papers on "RTI- Success or Failure in India" Invited

 

We all know that RTI Act has come up as one of the greatest laws enacted in Independent India and its impact on the related socio-political fabric and administrative setup is quite visible. While previously the doors of governance were quite closed to common masses, today with the passage of time RTI has made it possible that everyone can come and have a look at what is going inside the government offices. Yet there are many people who feel that RTI has been an abject failure and it has not been able to achieve most of the goals the social activists had originally envisaged. There is a middle of the road thinking where the feeling is that while a few of the objectives have been achieved, many others still remain as it is.

 

Our organization, National RTI Forum is making a small contribution in this field by inviting all those concerned with this topic to send Mini research papers on the topic "RTI- Success or Failure in India" The Research Paper can be about any particular aspect of RTI or it can also take the subject in its totality. It needs to cover the topic about functioning of RTI in India. The author of the Research paper might take any stand on the topic as he/she feels like. One can also send the Research paper on the basis of one or a few specific examples.

 

The last date for sending the Research paper is 30th April 2011. It can be sent either through email at nationalrtiforum@gmail.com , nutanthakurlko@gmail.com or mailed at
