JAMMU, Dec 5: Accusing the Coalition Government of rendering the SIC completely defunct, NSF activists today held a protest against the subversion of RTI Act in the Jammu and Kashmir State.
Led by Dr Vikas Sharma, State president NSF, raised slogans against the Coalition Government and demanded immediate appointment of the SIC members as well as its Chairman.
Lambasting the State Government’s casual attitude towards the SIC that led to its redundancy, Dr Vikas Sharma alleged that the Ministers and MLAs, particularly those of BJP, were in notion that the transparency was good for others only and they should be left free and unquestioned. BJP’s resistance to RTI Act an be gauged from the fact that one of the BJP MLAs moved a bill in the previous session of Assembly for the amendment of J&K RTI Act and alleged misuse of the Act by the so called “unscrupulous elements”.
