In order to guarantee an open society with access to information about the work of the govt. and govt. agencies, the principle of public access to official documents has been incorporated into one of the fundamental laws, Right to Information (RTI) Act. This act of the Indian Parliament sets out the 'rules and procedures' concerning citizens' right to information.

EXPLANATION:

  • The RTI Act provides that, subject to the reasonable conditions prescribed under the law, each state shall adopt and implement a policy of complete public disclosure of all its public interest transactions The Act also guarantees the people's right to information about public matters.
  • All people shall be given access, subject to limitations provided by law, to official records and documents concerning official acts, transactions or decisions.
  • Although RTI's act specifically provides a legal requirement for access to data, it stressed that certain limitations and restrictions extend to the right.. For example, the 'protection of an individual’s right' to privacy and national security remain a primary concern.
