RTI Forum in Hyderabad

UNITED FORUM FOR RTI CAMPAIGN – A.P

5D&5E, Reliance Estates, Hill Top Colony, Erramanzil, Hyderabad – 500 082


Ph: 040 – 23312396, 23378246



United Forum for RTI campaign - A.P. is an Umbrella Organization of 70 Civil Society Organizations. CSOs Like A.P.V.V.U, COVA, LOK SATTA, M.V. Foundation, Dalit Bahujan Front, DBSU, and Jana Vignana Vedika which are working among people in various spheres activities are part of the Forum. All these Organizations came together with a common agenda to spread the awareness of RTI among the people.

The United Forum is non partisan, non-funded by govt or quasi govt and is a democratic platform of all interested individuals and organizations to spread the awareness amongst the general public about the RTI Act and its utility and the role it can play in bringing transparency and accountability in the process of Governance.

Further, it is for the first time in the field of volunteerism that such a massive effort has taken place in the State of AP.

The Forum with all the participating CSOs has organized a state wide campaign for one week from 21st May to 26th May all over the state covering all the district head quarters, 550 Mandal head quarters and about 3000 villages simultaneously. During the week long campaign the activists assisted people in filing about 11,000 applications visa - vis 8,300 applications filed during the first one and half years of the implementation of the RTI Act.

The Forum has trained about 1200 volunteers during 2006-08 through out the State of AP and we are in the process of training 2000 volunteers during the current year.
Due to the efforts of the Forum and constant persuasion the Govt of AP has finally decided to include a lesson on RTI in 5th class curriculum from this academic year. We could also persuade the Govt to supply the copies of the RTI Act along with relevant Gos in English and vernacular language.
