It is for responsible citizens to ensure transparency
in governance with judicious application of the law on the
right to know. The law must be used by the genuine people
for the right cause. The greater the number of such genuine
activists, higher will be the degree of transparency and lesser
the corruption . These web pages seek to arm civic and social
activists with the basic information they need to have, to
start harnessing and leveraging the power of the Right to
Information Act, 2005.
The founder and chief coordinator of MAHADHIKAR
Shri Kewal Semlani, passed away in July 2008. His spirit and
passion for furthering the cause of RTI continues to motivate
all those who he came in contact with. The activities of MAHADHIKAR,
although limited by the absence of Shri Semlani as the driving
force, are being continued by a few of his close associates
and family members.
MAHADHIKAR's founder, late Mr. Kewal Semlani, strongly believed
that every citizen should be educated on using the Right to
Information Act and he had conducted numerous workshops to
achieve this objective. MAHADHIKAR continues to be
committed to spreading the awareness of RTI amongst all sections
of society. MAHADHIKAR through its association with
Tarun Mitra Mandal(TMM) and Satark Nagarik Sanghatan (SNS)
will conduct workshops on RTI for urban and rural citizens
in English and Gujarati.
MAHADHIKAR's website will continue to provide on-line help
and guidance on RTI.
