The passing of the Right to Information Act 2005 changed the game in irreversible ways. Overnight, it transformed people’s attitude and behavior towards government in ways that even the most far-sighted netas, babus or intellectuals had never foreseen. Several earlier legislations were dramatic in content (e.g., Prevention of Corruption Act 1988 and Human Rights Act 1993) but few could excite the citizenry.

Civil society’s energetic response to the Right to Information Act was due to the efforts of a dozen or so early pioneers, who painstakingly trained people and prepared the ground. They enabled tens of thousands of activists to spring up in the cities and villages of India, exerting tremendous influence on their local self-government bodies on an almost daily basis – a continuous ongoing Satyagraha by the common man at all levels of government!

Stung by this, many state governments including Maharashtra are now trying to dilute the power of the RTI Act in various ways. But, rather than being fearful and pessimistic, we need to go forward with clarity. Rather than becoming demoralized, we must prepare to adapt our behavior to suit the governance environment.

Let us plan by first looking at the big picture.

THE BEGINNINGS – LIBERALIZATION OF MEDIA IN 1991

The Congress government opened up our access to information – not in 2005 but 15 years earlier. Before his assassination in 1991, Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi opened the information floodgates. Soon afterwards, there was an explosion of internet and television channels like Star TV and CNN.

Earlier, all government information dissemination was tightly controlled. Doordarshan and All India Radio (AIR) gave out a strictly sarkari version of the facts. We were given doctored news about all events/ For instance, we used to hear about national disasters with underplayed death tolls many hours after the disaster occurred. News about ministries and government departments came in a thin trickle from the Press Information Bureau (PIB), or the Press Relations Officers of government organizations.

We the People depended on journalists to give us the inside stories. Long before the UPA government passed RTI Act 2005, in the early 90s, investigative journalists such as Arun Shourie and S Gurumurthy exposed AR Antulay’s donations-for-cement-quota, Rajiv Gandhi’s Bofors kickbacks and Reliance customs’ duty evasions. In the 1990s and early 2000s, Sucheta Dalal exposed financial frauds like the artificial bull runs of Harshad Mehta and Ketan Parekh in the stock markets, and the misuse of UTI’s US-64 scheme funds for private gains. Many investigative journalists were helped by whistleblowers inside the system.

IRREVERSIBLE SHIFT OF POWER AFTER RTI ACT 2005

Today, we have direct access to the inside stories. Rti activists have as much or more information than journalists. For media-persons, rti activists are a major source of inside documents and facts. In this age of coalition governments where opposition parties have been co-opted, RTI activists, whistleblowers and media are the only real opposition.

Many citizens from all walks of life now understand government paperwork in the context of the rules, laws, norms, procedures and manuals. They follow the paper trail and regularly expose corruption. Almost every day, there is a fresh scam in the papers and the TV channels, that has been revealed by an RTI activist.

HOW TO SHARPEN THE RTI TOOL

Besides exposing corruption, the RTI Act empowers common people by following up complaints and application letters with various authorities. To sharpen this tool, we must work simultaneously at several levels:

1) DO YOUR INTERNET RESEARCH & NETWORKING. AVOID UNNECESSARY RTI APPLICATIONS. Much of the information that we seek is already available in public domain on the internet. Google for it. Or, even if not on the internet, the papers that we seek may be with other activists. We just need to get in touch with them by using hubs like HumJanenge@yahoogroups.co.in, karmayog@yahoogroups.com and www.RTIIndia.org  . Most RTI activists are usually very happy to share information and give helpful tips; there is great camaraderie and fellowship, especially in the online community.

2) SHORT & CLEAR RTI APPLICATIONS. We must focus on filing sensible RTI applications and minimize appeals. We must mentor the common man to ask for Information strictly as defined in these sections of the Act: http://tinyurl.com/RTI-definitions-of-Information

As far as possible, avoid queries or requests for individual facts and figures by drafting applications that ask only for copies of various kinds of existing documents: http://tinyurl.com/Application-specimens1

3) MENTOR THE PUBLIC INFORMATION OFFICER & FIRST APPELLATE AUTHORITIES: We need to go out of our way to educate the PIOs and FAAs, who are generally ill-informed and not inclined to study laws and rules. By citing the correct sections in our RTI application and in our appeals, we can exert moral authority on them to stop denying information. See the highlighted part of this specimen RTI application: http://tinyurl.com/RTI-Appl-instructions2PIO-FAA

Also, we can show PIOs and FAAs these sections: http://tinyurl.com/RTI-Important-Sections4PIO-FAA

4) PUT PRESSURE ON GOVT FOR TRANSPARENT SELECTIONS OF INFO COMMISSIONERS. Amazingly, most Information Commissioners (who are retired bureaucrats and political cronies) know less about the RTI Act than average RTI activists. They also lack a judicious bent-of-mind, or the commitment to do a tough 9-to-5 job, which is the job-requirement. They believe that becoming an Information Commissioner is a five-year post-retirement benefit. Anna Hazare himself noted this, and repeatedly opposed these political appointments, but to no avail. See Anna’s letter to the CM written in Marathi: http://tinyurl.com/Anna-Hazare-opposes

English translation of Anna Hazare’s letter: http://tinyurl.com/English-Anna-Hazare-opposes

A Maharashtra government committee was constituted in October 2010 headed by Anna Hazare, and with Arvind Kejriwal, Vinita Deshmukh and some bureaucrats as its members. The sole purpose of this committee was to recommend to the state government a set of transparent procedures for appointment of Information Commissioners. Although there is a whole department in Mantralaya devoted to fulfilling Anna Hazare’s demands, this committee has not met even once for reasons best known to him. In the absence of such a big push, Maharashtra is languishing. Appointment of a fresh batch of Information commissioners is about one year overdue, and there seems to be no end in sight. The queue before the Information Commission has grown to over 24,000. The average RTI appellant of Maharashtra will have to wait at least two years for a second appellate hearing. (Annaji, are you listening? Do you care?)

5) PUT PRESSURE ON INFO COMMISSIONERS TO MAKE THEM WORK FOR THEIR SALARY. We the People need to exercise vigilance on CICs and SICs to ensure that they do a decent amount of work every day and every week. Also, we need to ensure that they exercise the full extent of their powers on behalf of the common man, and not protect non-transparent bureaucrats by pleading helplessness. See their powers and functions here: http://tinyurl.com/RTIAct-CICs-SICs-Duties-Powers

6) PUT PRESSURE ON STATE GOVTS, COURTS ETC. TO FRAME PEOPLE-FRIENDLY RULES. The  powers and duties of various State players vis-à-vis rule-making arise from these sections: http://tinyurl.com/RuleMaking-PowersDuties-Govt

Such rules can only facilitate the Right to Information given by the RTI Act; they cannot curtail or restrict the Right, as that is against the intent of the Act. But there has been a wave of bad rule-making, intended to minimize the transparency created by the sunshine law. Exceeding their rule-making powers, state governments, courts, state legislatures etc. have passed original rules or amendments to rules that go against the letter and spirit of the Act. The rules of Orissa and Arunachal Pradesh are truly crippling to information-seekers. Activists in such states are isolated in their battles, as their counterparts in other states do not empathize with them. Using a divide-and-rule policy, Karnataka, Bihar and most recently, Maharashtra have passed discriminatory amendments to rules. In other states like Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh, proposed amendments are hanging like a sword about to fall. And lest we feel encouraged to go to court, the high courts of many states have framed the worst possible rules for RTI! All such arbitrary rules will have to be contested in the Supreme Court. Rather than people of each state fighting their own battles, RTI activists across the country must unite and fight.

7) CULTIVATE CONTACTS WITH WHISTLEBLOWERS IN THE ADMINISTRATION and in the private and corporate sector. So, even if government tries to restrict our access, we will keep getting our information from whistleblowers. Thanks to privatization, government outsourcing, and public-private-partnership (PPP) projects, the iron curtain between civil society and government employees has collapsed. While this has created great scope for corruption, it has also made government porous.  And so, RTI activists must reach out to whistleblowers in various government departments, companies etc. RTI activists and whistleblowers must collaborate to challenge corruption. Not being public servants gives RTI activists substantial protection from the backlash, and so they can more safely blow the whistle if the proper documents are given to them. Yes, there will be risks, but we are not strangers to risk-taking, are we?

All these above steps are equally important. Our access to information will expand if we do all these. Obviously, a large number of us will have to work independently to achieve this goal. There is plenty of room for us all — activists of all temperaments and beliefs.

In many cultures, it is thought that the greatest good fortune that people can have is the opportunity to fight a war on the side of truth and goodness. It would be a shame to let such good fortune go waste!

The views expressed in this article are the author’s own and do not necessarily reflect BH’s editorial policy. 

Change comes from within. To uplift Muslim community in particular and society in general Muslim youths in Kerala have joined hands together. They are expressing their solidarity for all round development of the community and society.

Solidarity is the mantra of new age Muslims of the state. The youth have understood that only they can change their world and for this purpose they have come together in form of movement named ‘Solidarity’.

Started on May 13, 2003 in Kerala Solidarity is basically a youth movement that believes in channeling the revolutionary spirit of the youth creatively into constructive efforts that result in the betterment of the society as a Whole.

As the name suggest, Solidarity is a platform where all able Muslim youths join together and then work for upliftment of all sections of society. When popular front of India chopped off hands of a professor Solidarity came forward by donating blood to him. The Mantra is stay united and fight for the right causes.

P.I. Naushad, President of Solidarity Youth Movement says that sole objective of movement is to liberate the generation of youth from the immorality and debauchery and to transform them in to a radical vanguard fighting for the betterment of society.

Naushad says that we now know that only empowered youth can create a better country. So all our efforts are to prepare youth for a social revolution. Participation of empowered youth in political sphere can surely make a Proud Nation.

Talking about the movement Naushad said that solidarity is working for development of Minorities, Dalits and backward peoples. They had made around 1200 homes for poor. They are struggling for the backward area of Cochin called mattancherry, for victims of Endosalfan and fighting from the drinking water problems at rural areas of Kerala.

Solidarity movement is picking up daily life issues of locals. They are fighting for food, water and light. for ex Solidarity is running a project for south Cochin in kerela. In south Cochin lack of drinking water, shelter, job, educational backwardness, abject poverty and resultant issue like drug addiction and moral decay. Solidarity with help of well wishers intends to tackle each of issues in its comprehensive Cochin project.

Solidarity has also plans to organize agitations to make government take note of the plight of these unfortunates and to make sure that they provide these citizens with their fair share of assistance.

In this area called mattancherry builders are making their project and poor are losing their homes as well as jobs, solidarity is helping them for shelter by getting model project from surat and other part of country.

He told that water scarcity becomes worst in summer in Kerala. Families searches kilometers for drinking water. This causes health, social and family problem and places barricades before overall growth of generation, and it has never been addressed by government and non government bodies. Solidarity has implemented project for drinking water problem in 50 villages where government projects are insufficient or unavailable. Now this project has accepted taken by many of the panchayat and implemented in their areas.

Solidarity Youth Movement has organized numerous marches (including parliament march), solidarity has hosted speeches from human right and environmental activists, they made lot of protest and workshops for it with numerous public participation. Solidarity in the midst of all these efforts to get endosulfan banned, has also offered support to thousands of people negatively affected by the toxic pesticide where nearly 500 deaths and chronic health problems are attributed to past use of pesticide in cashew plantations. They provided medical treatment, housing, free rationing of food item, and education, employment and community development to the victims as part of their Endosalfan rehabilitation project.

Solidarity is also working for social justice specially to victims of government torture and injustice. They had organised protests in support of Binayak Sen, Soni sori and Abdul Nasir Maudany. Naushand said that silence of youth is root cause of injustice in India.

Naushad Believes that running out of the system is not the option rather be in system and fight for rights, The system can never be changed from outside. The change comes from within and youth need to come in system directly or they should involve in system to make it better. And if you feels that there is something wrong and system then don’t start blaming the system which is a big problem of our youth, we need not to blame the system we need to make the system better for us and country.

New Delhi: BeyondHeadlines has got the reply from the National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) to questions it had asked under the Right to Information Act (RTI) on the Forbesganj police firing.

On June 3, the police had opened fire, allegedly on orders from SP Garima Mullick, on villagers who were protesting against the blockade of a road in Forbesganj block of Araria district in Bihar. In the police action, five innocent poor villagers, including one unborn baby, a woman and a six-month-old infant lost their lives.

Responding to BH’s first question that what actions have so far been taken by NCPCR in connection to police firing, the commission has said in its reply that after receiving a complaint in this regard from Mahtab Alam, it has taken cognizance of the matter and directed the Chief Secretary, Government of Bihar; District Magistrate and Collector, Collector Office, Araria District; Superintendent of Police, Araria District; Director General of Police, Government of Bihar, to investigate and inquire the matter referred to them and submit a report to the commission.

The commission has also directed them to take further necessary action and send it a factual report along with authenticated copies of the relevant documents within 30 days of the letter issued. “The report should indicate inter alia the information on the offlowing points: (1) detailed report on the probe into child victims of the police action on June 3, (2) measures taken for treatment of injured children by the administration, (3) compensation for orphaned and semi-orphaned children as decided by the administration,” the reply said.

Notably, The NCPCR has been constituted under the provisions of the Commissions for Protection of Child Rights (CPCR) Act, 2005, for protection of child rights and other related matters. Under Section 13 (1) (j) of the CPCR Act, the commission is responsible to inquire into complaints and suo motu cognizance in relation to deprivation and violation of child rights.

Interestingly, when the commission was asked in the RTI query that whether or not it has sent any investing team at Bhajanpura Village in Forbesganj, Araria District; if yes, provide the detailed address and phone numbers of the members of team and if not, then why, the commission replied: “No decision has been made so far in this regard.” It is worth noticing here that more than a month has passed the incident took place.

BH has filed RTI queries to nine different departments concerned with incident.

New Delhi: Investigations by BeyondHeadlines (BH) show that while real estate price is soaring in the capital, waqf properties are still available at throw away prices.

Information accessed by the BH through the Right to Information (RTI) reveals that at least 86 shops, office space, etc. in Delhi have rent  as low as Re 1 to Rs 11. Two adjacent spaces in Nizamuddin are in fact hired by the World Education & Development Organization for Re 1 each.

These waqf properties are lying in Nizamuddin, Pahar Ganj, Karol Bagh, Subzi Mandi, Balli Maran, Matia Mahal and other streets in Old Delhi.

Courtesy: TCN

Even this meager rent is often not paid on time. Information available with the BH under the RTI till July 2009 reveal that some tenants have not paid their “arrears” for years – at times for as long as 40 years.

Information provided by the Delhi Waqf Board reveal the highest arrear of Rs 16,521 on Abdul Quddosss Siddiqui, President, Nusratul Islam Education Society in Old Delhi’s Fateh Puri area. However, this could not be verified as at Re 1 rent, such arrear seems impossible. or perhaps they never paid the rent!

For the past few years, there has been talk of overhauling the waqf board. In fact ‘The Waqf (Amendment) Bill, 2010’, was passed in April 2010 to improve the management and administration of the Waqfs in India.

However, there has been a little change on the ground so far.

Rajya Sabha Deputy Speaker K Rehman Kahn too had raised the issue of mismanagement of waqf properties in March this year. He said that there were at least 4 lakh acres of waqf land across country, major portion of which was encroached upon by different bodies, including the government.
