Dear All
Sorry, by mistake I have mention that victimisation of honest officers is must, WHAT I MEAN IS PREVENTING VICTIMISATION OF HONEST OFFICERS IS MUST. I AM SORRY FOR MISTAKE.

All officers are not corrupt, but it is also true that all officers are not honest, Victimisation of honest officers is must. Filling of RTI application depends upon circumstances, if some dishonest officers do not respond in ordinary way or in way they are supposed to preform, RTI application to seek information is must, whether it is in larger public interest or in invidual'sinterest.
