Summary: The passage of Right to Information Act 2005 is a historic movement. It replaces the culture of secrecy & control with openness and participation. But legal framework on this topic so far have resulted in little change. Is this another law that promises much, but changes little? More than the law, the RTI is a process, a tool, a concept and a cultural approach to life. Can we use this to meet the challenges of our democratic future? What is the potential and what are the road blocks? Aim of the book Manual of Right to Information Act is to compile for our readers both professionals and common man, origin, growth and evolution of the Right to Information act 2005, in a friendly manner. It contains some of the important Indian and global legal mechanisms to facilitate further research and thinking on the subject. We are to make use of these new openings in democratic decision making to build a vibrant, prosperous and developed India.
