[RTI INDIA] Re: Centre must add purpose clause to RTI Act


Dear Sarbajit,

As mentioned in your post (quoted below) about there being specific existing provisions in the Constitution which overrides section 6(2) of the RTI Act, can you please specify those relevant provisions (Articles) of the Constitution, to substantiate your claim?

Quote from your post:

In any case there are specific Constitutional provisions requiring reasons for seeking info to be mandated and which over-ride 6(2) of the RTI Act. FYI,, 6(2) is actually unconstitutional and it is better that the Act be amended otherwise it would be struck down by some court.

Unquote

Best Regards,

Sunil.
