Activists protest on RTI anniversary
RTI activist detained for protesting against CIC during President Kalamâs address
Activists boycott RTI Act's one year celebrations
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin--><b>Anna Hazare</b>, is sore over the failure of the CIC to include him among the speakers at the convention.
According to <b>Madhu Badhuri of NGO Parivartan</b>, which has been in the forefront of the awareness campaign on RTI Act, the working of the CIC and the way it has drawn a "most objectionable" programme to mark the first year of the implementation of the RTI Act has shocked the activists.

Whatever happened to <b>Sandeep Pandey's fast unto death</b> on the RTI issue. ZeeNews had him with the bunch booing at President Kalam. Shouldn't they be booing Sonia Gandhi or Manmohan on this? Why President Kalam?
Note the bunch:
<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Prominent among them included social activist Anna Hazare, former Chief Election Commissioner T. S. Krishnamurthy, former Governor P. C. Alexander, Magsaysay awardee and social activist <b>Sandeep Pandey</b>, human rights activist <b>Nandita Haksar </b>and Supreme Court lawyer Prashant Bhushan.

Sandeep Pandey hasn't answered some basic question put on this forum for about 2 years now by ex donors of ASHA and AID.
