[HumJanenge] RTI INFORMATION REGARDING INDIA AGAINST CORRUPTION....

FOR ENGLISH STORY:

http://beyondheadlines.in/2011/06/india-against-corruption-evades-questions-on-transparency/

जन लोकपाल बिल ड्राफ्टिंग कमिटी में शामिल सिविल सोसाईटी के सदस्य वैसे तो बार-बार पारदर्शिता की गुहाई देते हैं और इनमें से कुछ सूचना अधिकार अभियान से भी जुड़े हैं, पर जन लोकपाल बिल के मुद्दे पर ये खुद कोई जानकारी या किसी तरह की पारदर्शिता के लिए तैयार नहीं हैं।

India Against Corruption movement और Public Cause Research Foundation जैसी संस्थाएं जो जन लोकपाल बिल के लिए आंदोलनरत हैं, इस आंदोलन और जन लोकपाल बिल से संबंधित सूचनाएं देने से इंकार कर रहे हैं। ये वही लोग हैं जो बार-बार सरकार से कह रहे हैं कि लोक बिल के मुद्दे पर सरकारी चीज़ों को जनता के सामने सार्वजनिक करे और जन लोकपाल बिल ड्राफ्टिंग कमिटी के मीटिंगों का प्रसारण कराए। पर ऐसी संस्थाएं सरकार से जो मांग कर रही है, वो उनसे खुद पीछे हट रहे हैं।

खैर, हमने (www.beyondheadlines.in) दिनांक 13.04.2011 को India Against Corruption movement और पब्लिक कॉज़ रिसर्च फाउंडेशन को सूचना के अधिकार के तहत आवेदन भेजा था। (यह वही संस्था है जिसने "इंडिया अगेंस्ट करप्शन" का कार्यक्रम यानी अन्ना हज़ारे का जंतर-मंतर पर भूख हड़ताल आयोजित किया था।)

आवेदन के जवाब में बताया गया कि मांगी गई सूचना का अधिकांश हिस्सा हमारी वेबसाईट www.indiaagainstcorruption.org पर उपलब्ध है। साथ ही वेबसाईट के कुछ पन्नों के फोटोकॉपी भी भेजा। अब हम अपने सवाल और उनके जवाब खुद उनकी वेबसाईट से लेकर आपके समक्ष रख रहे हैं। यह उस संस्था का जवाब है जो पारदर्शिता की वकालत करता है। देश में भ्रष्टाचार को खत्म करना चाहता है। अब आप स्वयं ही तय करें कि इनकी सच्चाई क्या है। यह कितने पारदर्शी है।

1. India Against Corruption movement की स्थापना कब और क्यों किया गया। इसकी स्थापना किस उद्देश्य से की गई है। इसके स्थापना में कितने लोग शामिल रहें, और इनका चयन किस तरह से किया गया।
