No need to repeat cliched"Sunlight is the best disinfectant" US judge's adage. Let foreign/Govt funding component(recd through direct or indirect mode) become RTI compliant. Afterall Govt money(public expence)is involved in the process of clearing foreign funding,which means,in indirect manner the receipt of that fund carries public cost/contribution. The State doesn't charge any processing fee,and the transaction,necessary for all good reasons,is cost-free for donor/recepient. The public authority is involved in contributing to public cost. And if there is nothing to hide,why keep transactions secret from public gaze? It's not State vs Donor/Recepient NGO,but Donor/Recepient vs Public Interest(National Security included) Citizens have a fundamental duty to come to the aid of the State/Govt in discharge of nation-building duties etc. Compliance with Sec 4 of the RTI Act would itself create great deal of transparency for NGOs,needing little addl burden of RTI related work.spm
