SC WILL LAUNCH ITS ONLINE RTI PORTAL NEXT WEEK, SAYS CJI

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court is expected to unveil its online Right To Information (RTI) portal next week, making it more convenient for people to access information about the top court.

Chief Justice of India Dhananjaya Y Chandrachud announced it on Monday when a case relating to online RTI for high courts was mentioned before him.

“We are most likely to launch the online RTI portal next week. We are completely ready... So for the high courts to be concerned, we have to lead from the front,” the CJI said.

At present, RTI applications with respect to the Supreme Court are filed through post.
