Right to Information (RTI)

After recognising the importance of the right to know over time, this right was established as a full-fledged statute in 2005 under the name "The Right to Information Act, 2005". The RTI Act became a pioneering tool for Indian citizens in promoting, preserving, and defending their right to know.
