Do you agree or not, please justify?

[Guest guest]

Dear Members:

I am making 10 statements below about RTI Act. I wish to know whether you agree

with these statements or not. Please justify your choice with reasons. Looking

forward to your active participation.

1.People often file RTI applications to settle their personal scores.

2.It is not possible to avoid people from filing frivolous applications under

RTI Act.

3.It requires huge amount of resources to implement RTI Act.

4.Govt. offices can sometimes get flooded with RTI applications that can jam

govt. machinery.

5.People can blackmail govt. servants by obtaining information.

6.RTI Act cannot be effectively implemented since govt. records are not in a

proper shape.

7.Applications seeking voluminous information need to be outrightly rejected.

8.People need to be allowed to seek information only about themselves and not

about other spheres of governance totally unrelated to them.

9.People who used RTI and exposed corruption have been victimized.

10.There have been many good laws in this country but none of them worked.

Nothing can make one think that this law would work.

With Regards

Dr Geer M Ishaq
