In a recent interview I heard Arvind Kejriwal opine that the RTI has too many backlog cases and the Information Commission which is supposed to fine the officers does not bother to implement this fine/action**, thereby pushing the RTI towards its slow and imminent death. I've also heard that the RTI is largely misused but i'd still like to think its an effective tool if used positively. ** iirc, Kejriwal said the IC is empowered to fine the officer 5 bucks per day beyond the mandatory 30 days. In some cases this has turned into a 3 year window. -- .
