The document outlines a campaign to save the Right to Information (RTI) in India, highlighting issues such as denial of citizens' rights, legal violations, and corruption within the information commission. It calls for public authorities to disclose information, comply with legal requirements, and improve their operations to better serve the public. Concerns about misinformation and the misuse of power by information commissioners are also raised, alongside a critical view of the commission's spending and efficiency.

4. All public authorities including the Information Commission should disclose
information as required by Sec 4(1)(b)
Collect the penalty prescribed by law for the delay in publishing the information
Designate Assistant Public Information Officers at Sub Divisional offices, as required
by Sec 5
Update the website, http://infokerala.in, of the information commission in a manner
that is useful for the public, without unwarranted delay
Allot numbers to the complaints and appeals received by the Commission and inform
the petitioner promptly and publish them at the website of the Commission
Dispose of the complaints and appeals received by the Commission in a time bound
manner as prescribed by the law
Stop the misinformation being disseminated by the Commission
The Commission should not hide the fact that it is the sole responsibility of the
Commission to enforce the law
The Commission which has an air conditioned office, computers, luxury cars and
more than the required number of employees should not claim that it has no
facilities (the 4 commissioners who need 15 employees have 35, of the 1263 cases
filed in the Commission between January 2006 and May 2007 only 649 have been
disposed of, and the amount spent by the Commission during this period was Rs 2.5
crores of the tax payers’ money)
Stop spreading lies like some people are threatening the government employees in
the name of the RTI Act
Isn’t the scope for misusing the law available only for the information
commissioners? For example, to accept a bribe of Rs 15000/- from a defaulting
public servant who should be penalized with Rs 25000/- and fail to penalize him is
available only to the information commissioners.
Do the umpires in football and referees in cricket require the status of High
Court/Supreme Court judges? Then why do information commissioners who have
enough authority to enforce the RTI Act require such status?
