RTI Movement hails CIC's decision on custodial disappearances | | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, Jan 20 : J&K RTI Movement has hailed the recent decision pronounced by the Chief Information Commissioner (CIC) G R Sufi in which he directed the state Home department and J&K Police to provide the Information regarding custodial disappearances taken place in the state since 1990. Convener J&K RTI Movement Dr Raja Muzaffar Bhat while hailing the decision said that other cases which are pending against Home department and Police in the State Information Commission (SIC) must also be listed as soon as possible so that information related to other issues like Public Safety Act (PSA), Disturbed Areas Act (DDA), Police Modernization and e-policing is provided. "We also appeal J&K Government to undertake awareness programmes on Right to Information Act at district, block and village level. The Government is bound to create awareness about RTI Act under section 23 of J&K RTI Act 2009 but till date no such programme has been organized by the Government (except a few for its own officers ). If the Government is very much sensitive about Public Service Guarantee Act (PSGA) and the whole state machinery is involved in its awareness and implementation which is a great thing but at the same time one fails to understand why the Government is not showing same enthusiasm with regard to RTI in spite of the fact Government. is bound to create its awareness among masses," he said |
