The British ruled India for almost 250 years and during this time the British Government made the Government Secretary Act of 1923 under which the Government became aware that it would be able to make any information confidential. Constitution of India came into force on 26th January, 1950 after the independence of India in 1947, but the Constitution makers did not make any description of it in the Constitution or amendments made by the British Government, the Government Secretariat Act, 1923. The incoming governments continued to hide information from the public about the benefits of the provisions of Section 5 and 6 of the Privacy Act, 1923. Some awareness about the right to information was done in the beginning of 1975 with "Uttar Pradesh Government vs. Raj Narayan". The matter was heard in the Supreme Court, in which the court arranged to provide public accounting details to the public by public authorities in their order. This decision included the right to information under Article 19 (A) of the Indian Constitution by increasing the scope of freedom of expression. In the year 1982, the Second Press Commission recommended the dissolution of the controversial Section 5 of the Official Secrets Act, 1923, because it was not defined in any way what is 'secret' and what is 'official secret'? Therefore, in the absence of definition, it was dependent on the government's decision, which thing is considered to be confidential and what is made public. In the subsequent years, the 'Second Administrative Commission' constituted under the chairmanship of 'Virappa Moily' in 2006 recommended the repeal of this law. The demand for Right to Information started from Rajasthan. For the right to information in the state, the Janandolan was started in the 1990's, in which the Kisan Shakti Sangathan (MKSSS) was led by Aruna Roy, as a public hearing program for corruption. After the fall of the Congress government in 1989, BP Singh's government came to power, which promised to enact the Right to Information Act.

In his first message on December 3, 1989, the then Prime Minister BP Singh announced the amendment to the Constitution by enacting Right to Information Act and amending the Official Secrets Act. But even though the BP government did not want to apply it, the government could not even implement it. In the year 1997, the Central Government constituted a committee under the chairmanship of Dr. Shourie and presented the draft of freedom of information in May 1997, but this format of Shourie Committee has been kept by the two governments of the United Front. In the year 2002, the Parliament passed the Freedom of Information Bill (Freedom of Information Bill). It got President's approval in January 2003, but it was not implemented in the name of making rules. The Government of the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) passed the Right to Information Act 2005 Parliament, in order to create a transparency regime and corruption-free society, in order to make its commitment to the minimum shared program, which was 15 The President got the permission of June 2005 and, finally, on 12th October 2005, this law was implemented in all the countries except Jammu and Kashmir. Along with this, the Freedom of Information Bill 2002 was repealed. Prior to implementing this law at the national level, nine states had already applied, in which Tamil Nadu and Goa had 1997, Karnataka 2000, Delhi 2001, Assam, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Maharashtra in 2002, and Jammu and Kashmir 2004.

निष्कर्ष-

Right to Information Act today is increasing the face of democracy of the world from the 80's. Of those countries which have given importance to the right to information, of course Sweden can not be forgotten. If it is said in clear terms, then Sweden is the mother of information rights law, it is also the constitution of Great Sweden, which claimed to be the old constitution in the whole world, in which the right to information has been defined as democracy that has its right. Where other countries have fixed the deadline for providing information, Sweden has lobbied to provide information immediately and free of charge. Where Mexico has instructed its citizens to take information and automatically publish the information to the government, which has put a new wing of freedom of the people. The Indian government has also issued instructions for issuing automatic information, but no state and center department has taken any initiative. In India, public servants, politicians and bureaucrats continue to demand the law to stop this law by saying nonsense. Former Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh itself has advocated reducing the scope of this law and increasing confidentiality. Its position in India has reached so far that the government itself does not seem to be serious about this law. In the course of a program, the present Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that "the RTI does not allow anyone to eat", the motives of the government have been clear from such statements. Appointment of Information Commissioners is also not done fairly. Being an information commissioner, former bureaucrats and their loved ones are the example of corruption and dual policy, as a prelude to this law. Political parties and political parties who have come to the defense of transparency and transparency have opposed the RTI, and the ruling and opposition parties come together on a single platform to come together and not come under the purview of this law. bibliography
