On 1 February @PaBalochistan passed #Balochistan #RTI Act 2021 to protect citizens’ access to information & meaningful participation in the democratic process. Despite the passage of 2 years @dpr_gob failed to implement the Act.

Neither established the Balochistan Information Commission nor the designation of Public Information Officers (#PIOs). Provincial departments are reluctant to respond to information requests & do not comply with the Act.

Without the appeal forum, citizens are deprived to have #AccessToInformation. We (citizens, civil society & #journalists) demand to establish Balochistan Information Commission (#BIC) without further delay. @iFarahAzeemShah

RTI-Right to information act
సమాచార హక్కు చట్టం.
2005 లో కేంద్ర ప్రభుత్వం మరియు రాష్ట్ర ప్రభుత్వాలు సమాచార హక్కు చట్టం ద్వారా ప్రజలు పరిపాలనకు సంబందించిన,ఖర్చు ,బడ్జెట్,ఇలా ప్రభుత్వం ప్రజల కోసం చేసే ఏ పని గురించైనా మనం సమాచారం తెలుసుకునే హక్కును కల్పించాయి.
#RightToInformation.
అంటే ప్రజాధనం తో ముడిపడి ఉన్న విషయాలని ప్రజలు నేరుగా ప్రభుత్వం వద్దనుండే సమాచారం తీసుకునే హక్కు. ఇది ప్రభుత్వాన్ని జవాబుదారీగా చేయడం తో పాటు,అవినీతి ఉందా అనే విషయాల్ని కూడా బయటపెడుతుంది.
Right to information act enables to get information required to hold Government accountable.
సమాచార హక్కు చట్టం ప్రభుత్వ పాలన లో పారదర్శకత తీసుకువచ్చి అవినీతిని తగ్గించడానికి."ప్రభుత్వం ప్రజలకి ఇచ్చిన హామీని నెరవేర్చింది లేదా? ప్రభుత్వాలలో జవాబదారీతనం పెంచడానికి, ప్రజా ధనం ఏ విధంగా ఖర్చు పెడుతున్నారు" అనే విషయాల్ని స్పష్టంగా తెలుసుకోవచ్చు.

Dear @RahulGandhi please make it clear to your lawyer colleagues that being in politics is at least a presence of public service. So @KapilSibal must choose between legal fees firm AnilAmbani and attaching him over #RafaleDeal ...if @INCIndia wants to look credible!
Similarly, please come clean on your stand on @aadhar which involves surveillance, makes citizens vulnerable on financial transactions and sends out data abroad! @RahulGandhi we need answers!
Finally- the single biggest achievement of UPA was empowering citizens through #RightToInformation. Please pledge to make it stronger and to make regulatory institutions accountable!

Second appeal to the RTI application revealed procedural lapses: only 11 review committee meetings despite 40 Internet Shutdowns in Rajasthan. @SFLCin #KeepItOn #LetTheNetwork cc @accessnow @cis_india @DEFindia @iNetDemocracy @nixxin Image
@SFLCin filed an application under RTI Act in April 2018 asking various questions, one of them was : how many meetings of the review committee as per Telecom Suspension Rules 2017 have taken place? #Freedomofexpression #rightToInformation
The Home Department of state of Rajasthan refused to furnish any information vis-a-vis requested information. We filed a first appeal, and the First Appellate Authority failed to give a satisfactory response for refusal to grant the information sought. #KeepItOn
