RTI Movement has created a good momentum in Pakistan

In recent times RTI legislation has been made in Pakistan to a good extent. In the year 2011 18th Amendment has been passed according to which RTI has been made a fundamental right of all citizens of Pakistan. Article 19-A of the constitution of Islamic Republic of Pakistan describes what is Right to Information and it is a fundamental right.

RTI legislation is in the developing phase in Pakistan at the moment. Recently two provinces have enacted their legislations related with Right to Information. At the moment they are in the initial stages. Public sector organizations are making awareness regarding this concept among people and hopefully in coming times Right to Information may make Pakistan free from corruption to a greater extent...

Right to Information

Many people around the world don't know what is right to information? It is a basic human right recognized in many countries around the world. In recent years this concept has flourished in many parts of the world. It basically means that the access of public documents is a right of citizens of a state.

It is a right given by the State to its citizens. It works as a tool to check transparency of system. It is a Government allowing people to account itself and its officials. That is helpful in checking whether the Government officials are performing in lines with their liabilities or not. Corrupt Government officials can be taken to task in the exercise of this Right.
