AHMEDABAD: In an open house organised at the Ahmedabad Management Association ( AMA), the police and citizens came face to face on the issue of transparency in police stations and the need for proactive disclosures under RTI Act. This meet was jointly organised by Society for Women Action And Training Initiative (SWATI) and Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI) on Thursday.
The meet agreed that the RTI Act can become an effective tool in improving community policing and winning the confidence of citizens at large. A large number of RTI users, especially women who had filed cases of domestic violence and followed their individual cases by using RTIs were part of this discussion.
