TITLE : LAW AND GOVERNANCE IN INDIAN DEMOCRACY
ABSTRACT: The true test of a democratic government lies in how well it governs its subjects. India being the world’s largest democracy has to pass the test by ensuring good governance. Transparency is the foundation on which the concept of good governance rests and right to information is the greatest weapon in the armory of public to check abuse of power by the state. Indian democracy is facing tumultuous times in the wake of heavy corruption charges in every department. Right to Information Act is one means of checking the vice of corruption as it empowers the public with the power of receiving information about governance. The implementation of the Act however, has been a problematic area of concern. The role of an independent judiciary becomes highly relevant in such a scenario. The paper seeks to throw light on the law and governance in Indian democracy in the light of the Right to Information Act.
