摘要:Right to Information Act which is considered as a mandate for legal and procedural transparency in India was passed in 2005, but still even today the Act seems to be merely a paper tiger. The intentions with which the Act has been passed are not yet fulfilled because of lack of political will in its implementation and the inherent lacunas existing within the Act. Now the ray of hope lies in the hands of Judiciary. It plays an effective role in its implementation through its various decisions. The present paper tries to evaluate these aspects of Right to Information Act, 2005. Key Words: Transparency, Good Governance, Accountability, Jeopardy.
