Dear Friend,

It takes less than a minute to read and sign the petition. But it does
go a long way in taking this movement a long way forward.

So guys , please sign and forward it to all your friends, family,
colleagues and all networks you are part of. That's the only way the
movement is going to go forward.

cheers

Suresh

The proposed amendments include, introducing an exemption for so-called
“vexatious and frivolous”

to “file notings” and the decision making process, this
time by excluding “discussion/consultations that take place
before arriving at a decision”.

Indian State has, as a result greatly benefited, and the RTI Act and its
use by ordinary people is helping change its image to that of an open
and receptive democracy. An amendment in the Act would be an obviously
retrograde step, at a time when there is a popular consensus to
strengthen it through rules and better implementation and not introduce
any amendments. We strongly urge that an unequivocal decision be taken
to not amend the RTI Act.
