Alleging that
the government has deliberately kept the official website non-functional, a
social activist has served a notice on the chief secretary demanding that all
the websites function properly within 15 days.
Pointing out
that Section 4 of the RTI Act mandates that all information should be uploaded
and regularly updated on all government websites, Aires Rodrigues said that by
doing so, the government is showing its true colours, of trying to deny
information to the public.
Drawing the
attention of the chief secretary that chief minister Manohar Parrikar had last
year stated that people would not require to seek information under the RTI Act
as all file notings would be uploaded on the government websites, Rodrigues
pointed out that the assurance of the CM is still on paper.
