I do not understand who are RTI activists.Information is simple.Even if you call yourself Indian Citizen, Government does not know you are citzen of India.Every institution demands your iidentity.The fact is when you are roaming about on Indian soil , You are citizen.Treat every body with respect and help him to grow, should be duty of Authority.Why wasting time in acts , murdering activist.going legal, courts.Try for simple ID card , the people of India will take care of thmeselves.Do not think that you being having advantage of being educated in premium schools have extra responsibility for others.If you are really serious for others pl help them to get ID one ID for every Citizen, then you see they will take care of themselves when no authority ask thier identity and everybody becomes good honest ctizen.In world such nations are existing.Respect your fellow countrymen irrespective of thier position,status,colour.profession. with regards, Sher --- On Mon, 7/12/10, Nutan Thakur <[email protected]> wrote:

It was registered in the officer of the Sub-Registrar; Lucknow through a deed executed today, i.e. 12/07/2010. The name of the Trust has been decided to be "National RTI Forum”. The principal office of the Trust shall be situated at 5/426, Viram Khand, Gomti Nagar, Lucknow or such other place as the Trustees may from time to time decide. The Trust may also carry on its work at any other place or places, as decided by the Trustees. All income, subscription and pecuniary donations for the general purposes of the Trust and the income, investments and all other moneys from time to time forming part of the general revenue of the Trust shall on the same being received be paid into a banking account with any scheduled bank for the purpose of the Trust. The objects for which this trust is established are: 1. To work in the field of Right to Information 2. To make a sincere and genuine effort to bring all the RTI activists together to act as a nodal body for all the RTI activists and activities. 4. To look into all the matters related with RTI activists, including their training, guidance, support and security related aspects. 5.

To acquire moveable and immoveable property for the above-mentioned purposes. 12.

Thus National RTI Forum, which till now was working as an associate of the Institute for Research and Documentation in Social Sciences (IRDS), a Society registered under the Societies Registration Act 1861 now has an independent legal status of its own. It shall be working exclusively in the field of Right to Information. One of the first works it has undertaken is to publish the “Journal for Right to Information” for which we have already sent the letter for Title verification to the Registrar of Newspapers for India through the District Magistrate, Lucknow’s office. It might be the first magazine exclusively devoted to Right too Information. We most humbly solicit and request dear friends to give us Articles in Hindi or English latest by 1st September 2010.
