The recent enforcement of Right to Information Act is a landmark step towards ensuring a transparent and accountable government in the Country. The new legislation unequivocally confers on all citizens the right to access information and, correspondingly, makes the dissemination of such information an obligation for all public authorities. With this, India has joined the ranks of fifty-four other countries of the world which allow ‘Right to Information’ to their citizens. Let us hope that this step serves its intended purpose of establishing a regime that guarantees citizens’ Right to know!! We are covering information about the Act and its ICT perspective in this issue of Informatics, apart from our other sections. Your feedback is welcome and shall help us improve further… Best wishes for the festival season from the team of Informatics!
