RTI Act.......Know your rights.

As Elections approaching.... We all should be awake and charged up for using our right of voting. It is not only our right but our duty too to opt for the right person.

If we really want to see some change its time for us to take actions. Democracy have no meanings if we do not use our this right rightly. We should go and vote and make sure to vote for the right person. Most of us might not be knowing about the RTI act and if knowing would never have used it. It is actually a very good tool to cross question the government.

RTI Act is Right to information act.It came into picture since 12th October 2005.RTI is a central legislation, which enables the citizens to procure information from a public authority. It provides the mechanism for obtaining information.

Information means any material in any form including records, documents, memos, e-mails, opinions, advices, press releases, circulars, orders, logbooks, contracts, reports, papers, samples, models, data material held in any electronic form and information relating to any private body which can be accessed by a public authority under any other law for the time being in force.

"Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high…
…into that heaven of freedom , my father, let my country awake"

Be The Change You Want to See!!!

Yesterday, My friend called me up. He was very upset. He did not know the reason but he said he is angry. He was angry with everything around him. Angry with society, country systems, corruptions everywhere, Lies, Robberies, Cheatings, terrorism and what not. He was so pissed off with all this things that everything he do, every person he meets looking fake to him.

When I gave a thought to it, I felt all of us are in the same kinda situation. Somewhere in our hearts we are angry with something or the other. But does it change anything around us. Instead this thing is making us so unhappy, giving us misery all the time. Our anger not only affecting us it is also affecting people around us, our society, our real motives.

We cannot run away from things whether good or bad we have to live with it, face it and than only we can make an effort to change the things. Things seems fake when everything around is so annoying. And the only way to be happy in such scenario is to take some action to change. To give yourself a real hope that things will change, will actually move in the direction we want them to move.

Start seeing yourself, your efforts what you can do, ask yourself questions are you doing anything to achieve it. As someone very well said "Be The Change You Want to See"
