Abstract

This article reports on India's Right of Information Act (RTI), which gives Indians tools to obtain sensitive information from the government (one infamous for its daunting bureaucracy and secrecy). Some citizens have already used the law to great success. The law was pushed forward by the nation's most powerful politicians: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Congress Party chief Sonia Gandhi.
