RTI Encyclopedia

Here’s one for transparent governance: a wikipedia of RTI replies.

Here’s one for transparent governance: a wikipedia of RTI replies. The Centre for Public Policy Research has decided to build an RTI wiki that will collate replies received by various applicants. Like all wikis, anyone can upload information, post verification, under five categories—water, education, health, power and road transport. The site launches in three weeks with 500-600 cases from Kerala. Nasreeja Chandran, project coordinator of Digital RTI Mission, says the first phase involves collecting and digitising reports, and selecting 100 villages to spread RTI awareness. The second will make reports available on SMS. And finally, tables of  government schemes and progress reports will be created for villages.
