Right to Information Act fast becoming a dead letter, says SC

IndiaTimes Monday, 30 October 2023
The Supreme Court of India has expressed concern over the Right to Information (RTI) Act, stating that it is becoming a "dead letter law" due to vacancies in the Central Information Commission and state information commissions. There are currently seven vacancies out of 11 positions in the Central Information Commission, and several state information commissions are also facing vacancies. The court has directed the government to collate information on vacancies and pending complaints under the RTI Act and take immediate steps to fill the vacancies.
