📹 Right to Access Public Information: The RTI Act
The Right to Information Act, 2005 is your most powerful reporting tool.
🔹 You can file RTIs to:
- Expose scams
- Investigate government programs
- Track public spending
🔸 Government offices must reply within 30 days. If they don’t, you can escalate the issue to the Information Commission.
🔹 Remember: Asking the right questions in the RTI format gives you official proof for your stories—and legal backing for your claims.
