The Pune Municipal Corporation has set out to ensure that information on its 
website is regularly updated and authentic. It is making it compulsory for 
officials to publish the date of posting every report, project and circular 
along with the name of the author.

"The information loaded posted on www.punecorporation .org has to be regularly 
updated and should be authentic as it is accessed by many. We need to make it 
more credible. Regular updating with authors name will achieve that objective," 
said Rajan Erande, director of the PMC's IT department.

"An Right to Information (RTI) activist had pointed to us that the information 
on the website falls under the RTI Act and the information should be accurate," 
he said, adding that the civic administration would also benefit from the 
suggestion of furnishing information of each document on the website.

RTI activist Vihar Durve said it is mandatory for the civic administration to 
furnish such information on the website, but it is not updated regularly.

"The responsibility for the document, which is either a report, a project or a 
circular, is not fixed and in the case of wrong information no one can be held 
for the fault," he said, adding that regular updating with the author's name 
would make the website more credible.
