Workshop on "Right to Information" (R.T.I.).

Dear Sir/Madam,

A pioneering organisation in the field of youth development, Vishwa Yuvak Kendra was established with the active support of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru and was inaugurated in 1968 by the then President of India, Dr. Zakir Husain.  It organizes workshops, seminars and training programmes for the youth workers of grass-root level NGOs on different developmental issues.

Right to Information was a path breaking legislation wherein every citizen has a right to question governments and the governments are legally bound to provide us information. Parliament of India enacted Right to Information Act, which empowers the citizen to question governments, inspect their files, and take copies of government documents and also to inspect government works.

To create maximum awareness, sensitisation and education amongst the general public on fundamental concepts and nuances of such an important act the Vishwa Yuvak Kendra plans to organise a three day programme on Right to Information from 25 -27 June, 2013.

The following topics will be covered during the programme;

-  Background of RTI Act
-  Scopes of RTI Act
-  Provisions of RTI Act
-  Citizens right under RTI Act
-  Machineries under RTI Act
