NEW DELHI: There is no change “even in a comma or a full stop” in the proposed amendment to the RTI rules relating to word limit and fee from the ones proposed by the Congress in 2012, Union Minister Venkaiah Naidu today said.
“The proposals on the word limit and fee to be paid made in the proposed rules, to be notified and placed in public domain, are exactly the same as proposed by the UPA Government,” Naidu told reporters here.
The Information and Broadcasting Minister alleged that the opposition party was spreading a “disinformation” campaign against it and demanded an apology from it for suggesting that the Centre was “subverting” the RTI act.
The verbal dual between the two parties had started after the Centre proposed new rules under Section 27 of Right to Information (RTI) Act, 2005 to modify the act. (AGENCIES)
