Government to call law interns to test functioning of RTI Act. The Centre has decided to involve law students to analyse RTI applications, their replies given by the concerned departments and the suo motu disclosures made by them. The analysis will help a ministry or department consolidate and document its experience in the implementation of the RTI, its successes, constraints in implementation, identify the areas which need more attention, address the gap areas and suggest what more needs to be done to help achieve the objectives of the transparency law, the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) said. The internship will be for a duration of one month beginning from December 1. The interns will be provided necessary logistics support, like office space and photocopy facility, the DoPT said. Travel costs of interns will be reimbursed on actual basis upto Rs 5,000 on submission of reports, it said. The DoPT will coordinate with the selected public authorities or government departments for the internship programme.
