+++ The history of socialism and communism shows nothing more than opportunism by and in coordination with all other "-ism" including NGOism and capitalism. The NGO sector (like the Public Sector??) is replaced in no small measure in Kerala, North East/Manipur and also at one time in unified Bengal by the various arms of the Churches, and in Bengal now by Islam. So spare us that argument, Venkatesh. Specifically on RTI - please do clarify once again on the steps taken by CHRi and its assumed parent body, the Church of England as present in India, on adhering to the RTI Act of India - which they so eagerly expect everybody else to fall in line with. And on veiled threats of cases filed for libel and defamation - there are two main factors here - (a) you come to the Court with clean hands and (b) you recognise the supreme sovereignity of the Court. You are out on both points, I would think, right? +++ On the specific case of the toilets, great, congrats. Great victory of RTI. And this is what you quote;- ""CHRI has trained NAK to use RTI strategically to hold public authorities accountable for their decisions and actions. CHRI and NAK are collaborating to spread awareness about RTI in Gujarat and monitor compliance of public authorities with their transparency obligations under the RTI Act."" Now, once again, has CHRI itself adhered to the basic tenets of the RTI Act of India? Thank you, Veeresh Malik
