Abstract

Right to information is a basic need of good governance. The present paper describe that this act is not only the “Right to information” but really matter is the “Right to be informed.” This act is the only one which has the capability to change the administrative system from government to governance and from governance to good governance. In a democracy people can fulfill their important role only if it is an open government. The concept of open government is the direct emanation from right to know which seems to be manifest in the right of speech and expression under article 19 (1) (a) of the constitution. So let us come together to make the act a living reality for a common man.
