rti organizations , activists and users of the nation should come under one umbrella

"India was ruled by outsiders for so many years." So, what's new in this statement. Obviously nothing. We all read it in history. But I think we have read it but never learnt it.

Similarly, there is one popular saying "United we stand, divided we fall." We all read it. But I think we have read it but never learnt it.

There is a simple ( unethical ) thumb rule in electoral democracy : " if your strength is not fair enough to be counted in percentage vote swing during elections, no political party is going to count you before, during or after elections.

Keeping in view the recent developments in RTI arena, the attitude of politicians, bureaucracy and judiciary of the country towards RTI, its high time all rti organizations , activists and users of the nation should come under one umbrella or else our next generation shall read about RTI success stories in newspaper/magazine archives like we read tales today.

Time to wakeup and act.
