Dear Friends ,
Today I Got a Call from Our Ardent activist Sri J M Rajashekar . He Is Working as An Junior Health assistant . His Hobby is Literature and Dissemination of RTI .
NOW HE HAS BEEN SUSPENDED PENDING ENQUIRY FOR HAVING WRITTEN IN LOCAL NEWS PAPERS AS WELL AS SPOKEN IN FAVOR OF RTI .
THE DISTRICT HEALTH OFFICER OF HAVERI DISTRICT (FAX 08375-249009 , EMail : dhohaveri@gmail.
Now What did our Fellow activist RajShehkar Write or Speak . He Said Using Swami Vivekanada's World Famous Saying " Arise ! Awake! Desh Premi bharathiya's use RTI and ward off Corruption"
Is this Inflammatory and Instigation ? I am aware that Several Government TOP Officials are Now Delivering Speeches that People to use RTI to ensure Corruption is Contained . classic Example is of Our Lokayuktha Justice Santhosh Hegde.
Some of these Officers have written about RTI in News Papers/Magazines etc , Some Have Been Quoted that it is the Best Tool to Get Information . A Few IAS /IPS officers have Used RTI to get Information only to Protect and absolve Themselves of Corruption Charges .
In such a suiation is Speaking and Writing On RTI Inflammatory and instigation . On Whom ! Why ?
This is Sheer Intolerance.
The Suspension Order Further Goes On to Speak That People are Being Put into Commotion , Turmoil because of Such speeches and Writings> Is this independent India or British India . RTI Is an-statutory Citizens Democratic Right to Be Informed about Matters of Governance and Places the Onus of Government to Function And Conduct its Dealings Comprehensible and Transparent to General Public
While Condemning this Trend of Trying to Snub RTI Activists & whistle blowers -- Either By Bullets or By other Reprehensible Means , We all should Immediately Send EMails or Fax messages To the following Address . Demand Immediate withdrawal of the suspension order
