Sinopsis

Right to Information is a basic human right of every human being. Michel Foucault once opined, power is derived from knowledge and information is the basic component of knowledge. Information makes men wise and it is competent enough to cope up with the modern world. So, it is the duty of government to inform citizens about day to day happening whatever within the government. The transformation from governance to good governance is possible, if there is possibility of increasing participation of people in governance and free access of information. By realizing this fact, Indian parliament has passed Right to information act, 2005 to make government, accountable, responsible, efficient and transparent. This paper tries to highlight the basic guidelines of RTI act, the relationship between Right to information act and good governance and the issues relating to RTI act. In concluding part, the paper provides some core recommendations for successful functioning of RTI act. Attempt has also been made to make a distinct comparison on RTI legislation between India and developed nation. Participation in the governance is the heart of any successful democracy .
